:A lot may, most won't. Most people don't come anywhere close to hitting 250GB/mo.
I just recently updated my WRT54g router with Tomato firmware, and the bandwidth stats are interesting. I never would have thought that I qualified as a heavy user, and as of right now (with only a few days stats), I'm trending to use 150GB for a month. This doesn't include the streaming that I usually do either, so I'm sure that I'll exceed 200GB in no time.
edit:
I think that Comcast should specify up front that the CAPS will be adjusted upward on a regular basis, a la gmail storage space. The goal and understanding being that bandwidth needs, like storage, will INCREASE over time. So within 6 months, the CAPS will rise to 300GB. In 12 months, 375GB, 18 months 475GB, etc. Otherwise, this is a blatant money grab by Comcast.
If someone has bandwidth trend statistics showing how their use has increased over the past 24 months, please share.
GOOD
