[MLB-WIRELESS] MCG wifi

[mw at freenet.net.au]

Interesting - I'd love to know just how far the interpretation of 'free'
goes.

 

I've worked on some projects similar to this recently, and the term 'free'
usually has some fairly loose definitions! ;-)

 

Most free services I have seen are 'free to subscribers' or 'free for the
first x hours/minutes/megabytes' or 'free for this set of web sites' etc.

 

Sometimes they are packed with pop-up adware or shaped to crawling speeds,
or limited in service availability.

 

In the end, someone has to pay - and it's not usually the ISP (though
sometimes it is).  I wonder how much the MGC group will end up paying for
this?

Cheers!

Mike.
