Re: Caps=Cheap ISP
It's not absurd for a large number of consumers. I consider myself an "active" user of my connection and I routinely average 20 GB/mth, so 30-50 GB is great. Now, the reason for 30+ Mbps connections with caps is to allow customers to do what they need to do in a efficient manner while controlling the hogs that have a potential to crush the network. For example, I wish that I had 30+ Mbps last night when I downloaded Xcode at ~1 GB. I could have cut my 15 minute download time to less than 5 minutes. |
