caps and caps..

i think my subject says it all. when ISP's go pay per byte, all of this bullshit will be useless.

so all of this VOIP ness will cease to exist as there will not be a truly "unlimited" data plan anymore.

-if this happens (which it seems to be slowly)

Lake Worth, FL		 Good point!! But it all depends on the cap number. I have Comcast and they have a 250 gb cap. That's a lot of movies. It also depends on how many movies you watch.

If Comcast offered a $10 service with a 25GB cap and reasonable overage costs, than we would be talking about a pay as you go model. The current setup is just a money-making scheme to take us for all they can. It works since most people don't have another option. As long as prices stay just south of insane, Comcast will keep raking in the big dollars while insuring that there is no need to make way for increased capacity issues.
