pffff yea right. They companies will rape us for a bit then lower it casually

50 euros ($60.28) and 200 euros ($241)

oh yeah, that will be popular...

May-be if you build some servers and rent them out to gamers from your home... But, other then that... it's too expensive.

This seems a bit likely, I will check with my sources about this.

VerizonFIOS (sadly DSL) - verizonfios.com - already has some amazing packages released. Price gap is really wide but they provide 15mbps / 2mbps for $50 and then amazingly 30mbps / 5mbps for $200. Second price is amazingly high but that just goes to show you that the Bandwidth will be available but at probably really high prices.
