LOL "LOL" and now everyone will see a cap of about 60gb and now many people will start to see broadband prices soar. Soon, the people of MA will be crying that BB prices are "out of hand" when they start paying the overage of $2.50 per gb of transfer.
Until the socialists of the world finally 'get it'.. they will continue to screw things up for everyone else.
The bottom line is that the bandwidth abusers KNOW they are using way too much. If not, then they need to be told - which they are.
Here's what I DO agree on, because I happen to be one that agrees both with the consumer AND business as businesses, believe it or not - HAVE RIGHTS!
- Customers should be throttled back after a certain transfer to a 768kbps line for the remainder of the month - not cut off.
- Customers, if they are using the service to download movie after movie, need to be educated on the amount of bandwidth they are using. They may not know that 1 single movie helps push them to a bandwidth abuser that much quicker.
- Businesses don't need to be putting the consumer's best interest first. If you really believe that, I invite you to start your own business.
- If government wants to offer better services to the consumer, they need to do their job, the way it's supposed to be done. LAY A BETTER LANDSCAPE FOR BUSINESS TO COMPETE. They need to STOP tugging business by the leash and stop telling them what to do at every turn. We all know that government can't run anything worth crap, so when they take a private business and dictate how it must operate, they are in fact running things again. Governments job is to lay a foundation for which business can work - maybe they should work on that first.
It's currently way too hard for business to want to compete in this area. They write idiotic laws that favor one side, not the other and you constantly have big business fighting government and in the end the consumer feels the pain. The government needs to be :: gasp :: "fair" to business if they want to get what they want for the people.
Finally - stop living like socialists... we're not a socialist society. The sooner people get that out of their minds, the happier you will be. If not, there is a country or two out there that would be happy to have you as part of the borg.

Blah, Blah, Blah Finally - stop living like socialists... we're not a socialist society. The sooner people get that out of their minds, the happier you will be. If not, there is a country or two out there that would be happy to have you as part of the borg. You post has little merit because of the evolution of the net. IPTV, Netflix Online, Proliferation of Youtube and other video sharing site. LEGAL (yes, L-E-G-A-L) downloads for the average joe will increase 10 fold. What about those who will give up broadcast and sat tv for IPTV. How much bandwidth do you think they are going to use?
