canada | As if prices would somehow miraclously jump 10 fold. I pay $50/month.
I think I am under average, so if we went to $/byte I would hopefully only pay ~$35/month. If I really wanted to d/l a game/music/movie etc I'll pay for it; which might kill companies such as Direct2Drive.
The power users can pay for their own useage without me subsidizing them.
I am in favour of the government owning the pipes and the cable/phone companies can lease/rent the last mile, depending on who I choose. But I am only in favour of this when the government gets it's act together. hahahhaahahahahhahahahahhaha. |

Faison, NC | Its all about greed.
The isp promote unlimited access and then complain when someone uses it that way.
If the isp don't like bandwidth hogs, then limit the connection. Post up front what your limits are for the amount of money and quit whining.
The problem is they won't do that because unlimited is a much better buzzword to attract customers. I'm willing to pay for what I use, but stop this unlimited, but with hidden caps , garbage. |

kudos:2 | I believe most (all?) ISPs stopped the "unlimited" marketing a few years ago. |
