- The Palo Alto Cable COOP just raised the subscription price yet once
- again. Its now about $26/month for about 70 cable television multimedia
- channels. One reason given was 'a lack of new subscribers'. The user
- base expanded by 1% last year, or 200 accounts.
-
- Netcom Online Communications Service charges about $19/month and I
- estimate that it expanded in the Palo Alto area by about 350 new
- accounts, or a rate of 200%. Currently about 3000 text-based channels
- (newsgroups) are offered.
