Hey all,

I've had Earthlink for 3 years now.  I must start with saying that they have rock solid reliability, if their servers went down, I sure didn't notice nor did my customers.

I will say that customer on the other hand is average.  Long hold times, and poor email support are starting to annoy me as I look to add more and more features to my site.  Recently, Autoresponders stopped working with my webforms, it's been 6 weeks without resolution.

Also, their "resources" are mostly old freeware which haven't been updated in years.

The big downside is price.  My package is $35/mos compared to others in the $10-$15 range.  Not sure if they're worth the $25/mos premium.

I'll probably be changing service providers on the basis of price and some other features (mySQL for example) in the near future and I'll report on my findings with them.
