Excuses, Excuses

That's all this stuff is because the real issue with the broadband providers is NOT about bandwidth capacity as they are saying it's really about CONTROL and nothing else. They seek more control over their network and the way to assume that control and assert it is through stuff like Bandwidth Caps, Metered Billing, Throttling, etc... It's really all part of their plans to have more control.

There is no "Bandwidth Apocalypse" due to P2P, Piracy, or any other bogeyman they may trot out. It's simply mis-direction plain and simple.

It's all about needing to keep profits always increasing to keep investors happy. When you can't rely on new customers to bring in extra profits, your only option is to milk existing customers to make up the gap.
