I use more than 5GB...

...just playing 1 hour of Team Fortress 2 or Counter-Strike:Source a day.

That is not really more than just casual gaming and it would blow over these caps easily.

Oh, and not to mention the few GB you'll need to even download the game over Steam to begin with.

Boy am I glad Shaw Cable actually has REASONABLE caps -- 100GB for Extreme-I (10mbps).

In my experience, some surfing and 2.5 hrs of tf2 cost me ".9 Gbits" or ".1125 GBytes". No where near 5 GBytes.

100 gigabytes a month is not reasonable. About 500 gigabytes a month would be considered reasonable in the year 2008.

in my opinion 100-150gb a month is perfectly reasonable, personally I almost always use less than 30 (my cap is 40) It has not held me back one bit, I have always been able to get what I want.
