The flip side...

The flip side of all of this, only a very few people must be using all the bandwidth they are paying for.

The cable companies complaining about this would be like having an all-you-can-eat restaurant where everybody paid full price yet only 5% of the people actually ate a full meal--and complaining about it!

Again, I am not opposed to some high caps (you can't have the food to-go) but come on, if you offer 6Mbs, unlimited service should people be able to use it for more than 1.1% of the month?(somebody check my math : 6Mb/s = .6MB/s = 3.6GB/hour.)

6Mb/s =/= 6MB/s
6Mb/s == (6/8)MB/s == ((6/8)1024)*60 GB/m
or ... something like that.

6 megabit = .75 MB/sec, or 2700 MB/hour. Which is 2.6 GB/hour.
