Re: So they won't need caps then right? Yes, that may be true, but with VoIP, and gaming(online), downloadable content for games, and legal movie/tv watching sites[hulu(I don't know if everything is legal there, butI know some is)/netflix come to mind] like this: Its the middle of summer vacation. The dad hooked the PC up to the new plasma/lcd TV, and they have a netflix subcription, he and the mom go to watch an HD movie. Then the mon's friend calls(on VoIP) and they chat for an hour or so. They have 3 kids one gets on the 360 to play halo3 online, the second goes to watch hulu(the "D" doesn't matter as he will be on for a few hours) and goes to itune to get a new song or 2 while its buffering, the third gets on a web cam with a friend, or plays brawl online. and due to the fact that its summer vacation the kids will be doing this most evern day for a while.
I could get by with 250g a month with CC, but the throtling is what I cannot stand, if it makes VoIP unuseable, what if I have to call 911? They won't be able to understand me! then I die! Thats why I would rather have a slow speed with at least 250g per month and no throtle than one with a throtle. I would rather have unlimited incase I NEEDED it, butI could do just fine with 250-300 a month. I am most likly in the "vast vast" part you talked about. I too hope that as time goes on the caps will increase to accomadate the increased need(and by then it WILL be NEED). and for thoes who NEED no caps I heop they can afford T1. |
