Re: 80 for Elite?

This is where I _really_ find that the cap ratio isn't consistent.

768kbps - 20GB (1Mbps:26GB)
1.5Mbps - 40GB (1Mbps:26GB)
3.0Mbps - 60GB (1Mbps:20GB) - getting worse
6.0Mbps - 80GB (1Mbps:13GB) - worse yet
10.0Mbps - 150 (1Mbps:15GB) - not much better

I would expect the cap ratio to actually get 'better' as the price and speed increases... not worse.

If they kept the ratio consistent across the board, here's what it would look like:

768kbps - 20GB (1Mbps:26GB)
1.5Mbps - 40GB (1Mbps:26GB)
3.0Mbps - 80GB (1Mbps:26GB)
6.0Mbps - 160GB (1Mbps:26GB)
10.0Mbps - 260GB (1Mbps:26GB)

That would make more sense.

I just had a DSL line installed for my work at another office. I ordered pro, but the max sync is only 2160kbps (was 1650kbps till I complained for 2 weeks and got them to change the circuit). I'm paying $40/m for that but I got a deal, the normal price Pro with a single dynamic IP is now $52/m.
I'm likely to push around 100-400GB of data over than line a month. If this caps get applied to their business lines, they're going to loose a lot of business.

And uVerse too?!? Well forget that shit then, I was considering switching from TWC to uVerse Max, but if they're going to cap it, they can just go ahead and remove their VRAD from my neighborhood, I won't care.

Interesting observation. But - what actually costs? The speed or transfer? I use less than 10GB/mo, but wouldn't want to have under 1Mbs service. Tying the two together doesn't make that much sense to me.
