Too Low

5GB is not enough.

A 150GB cap is about the lowest that I would consider reasonable. These guys need to follow Comcast and not TWC.

TWC is only doing that in limited areas and did not decide over night that it was going to be nation wide for all customers. TWC is only using the cap for NEW customers. Not old. TWC will most likely also raise that cap.

No joke. And I thought TWC's "trial" caps were low.

I used to seed torrents for mods and shipsets for a 4X game called Space Empires IV. I've since stopped and transferred all that to my webhost, but I'd easily exceed 5GB in a day when a new mod or shipset came out. For this completely legal (and relatively low traffic) use of P2P I'd be labeled unreasonable? Gimme a break.

Your right not all areas, Only the areas that they don't have competition and can get away with it.
Only for NEW customers AND the OLD customers that don't read fine print, »Time Warner Cable Using Fine Print To Foist Caps On Customers
If and when TWC raises their caps we can discuss it again but as you said they didn't come up with these numbers over night.
