This guy knows what he is talking about....
"Any large carrier with a cap below 100 gigabytes and a price above $30 is abusing market power. Their bandwidth costs are less than the marketing budget, and the customer is profitable.
I believe Time Warner's interest in bandwidth caps has little to do with its own costs and a lot to do with the emergence of movie downloads and streaming television programs over the internet. "The smart people at Time Warner are scared of people watching TV directly over the internet. 'Lost' and 'Desperate Housewives' look better over the internet than they do on digital cable."
