Reach that cap even faster!

Seriously does it matter if they have stupidly low caps?

Exactly my friend low caps is useless
ATT is becoming like a deathstar... Its eating itself out...Why the low caps??? so they can provide for more user without any upgrade and force current subscriber to use less of the bandwidth. Its insanity...
A death bite to itself... sorry ATT you just have gone 2 step backward with caps and obsolete VDSL
a lose-lose paradigram

"stupidly low caps" = "I can only average downloading one full-length HD movie or three full-length SD movies every day of the month" ??

does not compute for me.

I would call 50GB or less "low", and 10GB or less "stupidly low". I would call 150GB "reasonable" and 250GB "high".

Obviously these numbers will change over time but that's where I think the market is right now.

AT&T is betting that you're wrong and that the vast majority of consumers will accept their service with these "low caps". If you're right, customers will leave them in droves and they'll lose.

So far all the dire predictions about how U-verse will fail (first because of FTTN vs. FTTH, now because of caps) have proven completely wrong. U-verse is very successful and is growing about as fast as it can.

We'll see how it goes in the future. I'm not betting against them.
