I agree. However, even a business class tier for $20 more a month would be a stretch. Even if it did tout unlimited use.

But you're forgetting the point;

These days there are legitimate purposes for an average home user to use a substantial amount of bandwidth (Netflix Downloads? PodCasts? Gaming? VoIP?).

Why should average joe user have to sign up for a business account if he/she isn't using it for business purposes ??

A better question.

Would you trust comcast to make the distinction between "Business Bandwidth" usage and "Residental Bandwidth" usage, who will instantly assume that the home user should only send and recieve e-mail and browse "The Fan" on their homepage?

Not saying your wrong on this one, just opening the box.

Comcast does offer business class. The tiers start at $79 and top off at $169 a month. You should contact your local Comcast sales office and ask to speak with a business sales rep.

However don't expect to see any SLA's over and above what they offer residential. The only 'bonus' is there is no cap and they have better upload speeds.

I had an outage that lasted a day and a half due to power failure at a node. They blamed the utility. The other outage lasted 2 hours was a DHCP problem at a business class only boundary router in Atlanta.
