What is the difference between the free Internet service provider and the premium pay ISP?
This is a case of getting what you pay for. You get the service free, but the service provider shows you pop-up ads while you are online. Some users prefer to pay for the service rather than see the ads. The free service is limited to a fixed number of hours per month while the premium service is limitless access. Here are the details of Compaq’s free intranet service through Net Zero. Net Zero offers 40 hours of free ISP service per month. A message will appear during the 40th hour session to advise users they have used up their allotted time. Net Zero will then request credit card information and user will be charged for additional time the rest of the month.
