| I'm fine with metered billing...but
1) The meter better work correctly.
2) The price per byte/unit better not gouge. |

Do you have a router? Are there others in your home who use the internet?
Meters. Are. EVIL. Period.
Nothing is more frustrating than a 7.5G average per month cap. It's worse if you have teenagers who like YouTube or more than one computer that requires software updates. Anyone who's lived with Wildblue or Hughesnet can tell you all about why you should ALWAYS fight the threat of a cap.
The ISPs are going to want to implement cappage sooner rather than later. If they get most of the country wired with cable or FIOS, THEN try to hit them with caps there will be a huge outcry when those capped bills arrive. You can't have a situation where most people are used to online gaming, downloading the latest episode of Glee and using VoIP on a constant basis, then slapping a cap on all of that. You think the public outcry over health care is loud? Just wait. |

Just think how unhappy the advertisers will be if not a single ad gets through to your screen! |
