Some members haven't upgraded to Cakewalk by Bandlab because their cell provider does not allow tethering.
This makes me wonder, what is the cheapest SIM with data that allows tethering that doesn't require a contract. I.e. like a burner phone provider.

I ask this because some people may find that information useful. Especially as Cakewalk will start to accumulate updates every month.

I posted this in another thread yesterday. It may be too much of a hassle for some, but may be worth looking at:
 
My current UK carrier is way too expensive when roaming in the US, so when I'm in the US, I use a "3" PAYG (burner) sim with the "feel at home" option. This gives me 12GB of data per month in the US for 30 GBP (approx 40 USD).  As it's a PAYG, I only pay the 30 GBP for the months I'm actually in the US and let it lapse the rest of the year.
 
If you've any friends/family in the UK, you might want to see if they can get one for you and send it over by post.
 
I'd check the small-print though - AFAIK it does need to be activated in the UK first, and may stop working at some point if it's not used in the UK every now and then.
