imho

The reason companies charge the prices they do for their services is because there is a strong demand for it, and little competition. If the demand went down, and people started to use community created/supported networks then the price would go down for related services.

I too had a wireless internet provided that has unlimited download allowance, and that was about the only thing positive they had going for them. Then for some strange reason they made the choice to implement a 5GB cap. I am now using a non-contract service with no monthly limits.
