Re: Maybe Dam right!!! Why not reduce it to 1gb and make our internet service even better than that. You know that's what's coming once they start these caps. It's just another profit gimmick.
Don't forget to do like the oil companys. Pay out higher executive bonuses, so you can show less corporate profit. That way you can cry about only making 9% corporate profit. Then you can tell us how terribly expensive it is to provide internet services.
Dear Time Warner: Please increase the balance of your executive bonuses to at least a 50 million dollar minimum.
PS: It's ok to increase the CEO bonus by another 50 million also.

Valencia, CA | Personally... I think they need to scale by a factor of 10.
50GB/100GB/200GB/400GB
Lets make at least an assumption or 2 here to show the use/cap ratio:
Road Runner Basic
Speed: 1.5M x 384K
Basic Tier – 10GB 1.5Mbps = 192kB/second = 474GB/month (30 day). 10:474 = ~ 2.1% usage, not including upload
Road Runner Standard
Speed: 6M x512K
Standard Tier – 20GB = 768KB/second = 1898GB/month (30 day). 20:1898 = 1% usage
Road Runner Turbo
Speed: 10M x 1M*
Turbo Tier – 40GB = 1280 KB/second = 3164GB/month (30 day) 40:3164 = 1.2% usage.
Personally.. I'd expect no less than at 10% usage cap, and would 'push' for 33%.

Don't you get what they're saying? They're saying the LESS Internet bandwidth we give you, the MORE you'll appreciate the bandwidth you DO have! Thus, a better experience.
Besides, you spend too much time on the computer anyway-if we give you less bandwidth, then you'll have more time to read a book, or go outside, or spend with your kids-thus a better experience! |

Valencia, CA | If they give me less bandwidth... I might just be inclined to not use the Internet at all, and not have to pay for their service.
