I'm not sure if it meets the technical definition.  Probably the fine
print on the contract says they can shut of any and all services at
any time and you'd still owe them money for the remainder of the year.
But judges and juries tend not to like that kind of one-sided contract.

It's probably not worth taking anyone to court, but if it were me, I'd
cancel the service and demand my money back.  Or if regular monthly
payments were being deducted from my account, I'd stop those payments,
and let *them* take *me* to court if they think I'm being unreasonable.

I get an ISP for three main purposes:  Email, Web, and Usenet.  If
any one of those goes away, I'd be about as happy as I would be with
my landlord if he cut off my heat or my water.
