Re: Pay per Usuage That's fine, as long as ISP's are aware that the average usage for all users will keep rising, and structure any over usage fees/penalties up front. If they can't or choose not to keep up with bandwidth demands, they'll find themselves nailing an ever greater percentage of users with usage fees, ultimately pricing themselves out of the market. |

The AVERAGE Usage is no where near what the members of this site feel it is. Its the posters that continually brag about what they download in a month that need to bring down their usage or pony up and pay for it and the network upgrades only they are demanding.

because I don't see very many people using Dial up where broadband is offered. People are sharing lots of video and music now more so then ever. How is the average usage no where near what many of us here at BBR speak of? |

How is the average usage no where near what many of us here at BBR speak of? Because 90% of users don't download music and videos - either free ones or for pay ones.

Just because you are sharing music and video, the average user is not....He may look at a few youtube vids....but its no where near the 100's of Gigs that the few download.
Lots of people have lives!
