My thoughts, exactly.

That cap sucks big fat raw...nevermind..

But at least you know where you stand.

Seeing as my ISP has inviso caps that are above 90GB(from what I have seen 200-300GB), it's still better than knowing that 90GB is a wall!

Either way, it wouldn't affect me! I use a whopping 35GB per month!
But what I *DO* download gets here fast!

As always, YMMV.

An invisible limit with a one year suspension for exceeding it sucks. Talk about draconian! What sucks about Rogers? They only suspend you until the end of the billing cycle. And since the limit is disclosed, you can plan ahead and manage your usage.

Too bad all cable companies don't implement caps in such a reasonable straightforward way.

Of course I prefer a well-managed network that doesn't need to impose consumption limits.
