I have a distaste for Traffic Shaping, if it came down to choosing either bill by the GByte, or traffic shaping, I'd take shaping.
Reluctantly, I have to agree. I don't want to go back to the early to mid 90's where I had to constantly worry about how much I was on the internet. After a few months of running up bills in excess of $100, I found a rare-at-the-time flat-rate provider.

Funny thing, a few months after that, a telemarketer called me trying to sell me internet service at the low cost of "only" $x/hour. When I told him I was already getting unlimited usage for $19/month, he seemed shocked. I don't think he even knew such a thing existed. It's always funny listening to them stammer and try to "save" the call, before finally realizing they have nothing to sell you.
