Re: 50Mbps with a 100gb cap? at least the price is on par with D
If you think your cable company is without caps, you're kidding yourself. Remember how Comcast was terminating accounts left and right for using "too much" of their unlimited Internet access without saying how much was too much? That's a cap. At least companies like XMission are telling you upfront that there's a cap and what it is.
You'd also be surprised how much traffic doesn't count towards the cap. Because of the peering agreements they have in place, downloads from many sites (Microsoft is one) don't ding your monthly transfer.
As much as we all hate it, all-you-can-eat Internet is dying off as fiscal realities take foot. Some companies are going about it stupidly (Time Warner with 40GB), some are more realistic (XMission at 500GB). Unless you're saying that it's fair to raise prices across the board so that light users subsidize heavy users? |

Cleveland, OH | Comcast has stopped using that "unlimited" advertisement. They show ads here on national tv all the time. They don't even offer service in Ohio. And no where on their ads do they say "unlimited". |
