Re:My Questions R simple broadband industry is built on doesn't take kindly to the power user,who makes up a small percentage of an ISP's user base but consumes the majority of its bandwidth. Like gluttons at an all you can eat buffet,these users flock to the advertised promise of unlimited bandwidth,stuffing their hungry maws with porn, DVD rips and all the ABBA discographies they can consume.
======================================================
1, Then WHY is it so hard to just raise the rates for these Power users,like raising [b]the prices of cigarettes or the tax on cigarettes?
instead of hurting EVERYONE inside the USA, china has a limit on what they allow their citizen to be able to search on the Internet,also bet China & other countries don't have many "Power users".
==========================================
2,Why shouldn't Power Users be "capped out" or limited?
===================================================
But what happens when video services turn everyone into a bandwidth hog? In addition to a flood of legitimate and pirated content for download, there looms services like DirecTV's upcoming broadband VOD system that allows users to hook their broadband connection up to their DVR to download high-definition content.

simple,
then slow down the D/L time,again cap out or limit how much data & how fast it can be d/l.
high for business's to get by on,slower for home users.
