5 GB caps?!?

are freakin' crazy? so 5GB, that's 166MB a day. if i get lost on youtube, i could burn through that in an hour. this is ignoring if any sort of online video/music/game installation/patches that many internet users use. i need atleast 15GB/month for 'normal' internet browsing.

You probably didn't get the memo. Accoridng to ISP CEOs if you do anything other thank checking e-mail and visiting static webpages( you know the 5% that still exist )you are an "extreme user". Youtube? NORMAL people don't watch online video. NORMAL people don't play games online. NORMAL people have no desire to download anything from the internet. It's true, it's in the memo.

Heh, you're telling me. I've seen a single YouTube video burn through 800MB of bandwidth before...

Just thinking about it now, I could burn through a 5GB cap with my free webhosting account alone. I get 10GB a month, soon to be more to use on my free host's ad-free plan.
