Re: Comcast Bandwidth Abuse - Discuss here only
said by fonzbear2000  :a solution to this would be for comcast to have really high monthly bandwidth limits-300-400GB/month should be more than enough for anyone Posting high bandwidth limits would actually increase bandwidth usage by a significant percentage of the user base. It gets translated from a limit to the perception that "I'm paying for 300GB of bandwidth /month" so that would just encourage people to download more as to not "waste" the bandwidth they are paying for.
For the costs to work out for every person transferring more than 100GB they need to have a sufficient number of users consuming less than 40GB to balance things out. (or some similar spread) Your monthly service fee actually pays for a lot less upstream bandwidth than you might expect.
