They can't justify it.
They don't need to justify it. You need to justify it to yourself. If you can't, then stay with the standard or Boost tiers.
Well, things could be worse.. they could raise the price of broadband durring the peak season + holidays (March - October, December) the same way they do with gasoline... thats IF $1 a gigabyte for overages isn't enough... /sarcasm

WHAT?!? Why give a greedy industry new ideas to screw over the consumer... I'm just saying if you keep paying the higher prices... eventually you'll get so used to it.. you'll learn to perpetually live in debt they same way the government does.
At which point, can you really have faith in the monetary system?

While we're at it... call & cancel your cable-tv subscription please. Tell 'em Tmc8080 sent you, courtesy of the Comcast & Time Warner price experimentation thread.

Why would march-oct be peak? Wouldn't the low daylight winter months have more data usage?

Gak!!! Shades of the old Compuserve twice a year slowdowns. One in September when all colleges started up and a much worse one in January two weeks after Christmas when people figured out how to get their modems from Christmas working.
