    I had Metro PCS unlimited, but they have worst coverage. Now I'm with version, but too expensive to stream movies so i just watch them the old fashion way on DVD

    I've been looking at cricket new unlimited plan. Its on ATTs network so it "should" have good coverage. Its limited to 8mbit/s on LTE and 4mbit on 4g but that should be good enough for netflix and youtube and everything.

    My Verizon unlimited data plan Was $150 a month for a single phone line but I was grandfathered in before June of 2012.
    I'm sure you can go on eBay and find someone willing to sell you their plan which they got before June of 2012

    My Canadian phone actually roams on T-mobile and ATT so it sorta lets me watch the coverage areas of both. There area some areas it goes to no service but its rare. Lots of areas where T-mobile has no service. So it would be my choice over T-mobile.

    If you are still with Verizon you might want to check their go90 app for media streaming, it will not count against your data use.

    I think this in not true. The terms say it counts towards your data alotment and usage.
