Re: as long as there is no minimum....

there would have to be a minimum, bandwidth isn't an ISP's only cost

they can factor it into the per byte cost.

was thinking about this for other sectors, like electricity and gas companies. why have a minimum service fee, if not to just screw customers out of a few more dollars? figure your costs per unit of measurement (killowat, etc.).

can't cable tv operators do this too? that would be nice. everyone has every channel, but you are charged only for the time you use it.

the minimum = what you currently pay then add in what you use. its a WIN WIN for ISPs.
