They see digital delivery in the horizon and want to set the low caps now before everyone and their mamas find out the convenience of downloading a movie on your Xbox360, PS3, Samsung HDTV, etc...
At about 3gb for an HD movie, I can go way past that 11gb average using my HDTV alone, no need for any other equipment. And before even turning my PC on for other internet-related tasks
Come on, people. Open your eyes.
Almost everything is getting "Internet-enabled" nowadays and some of those things will be bandwidth hogs. Letting caps be implemented now is just letting ISPs shackle you into high-prices later. |

| It's anywhere from 60-100 gb per month for me.
TV sucks, I don't have any internet utilizing game consoles, and I try out some PC games, MMOs, etc., now and then.
I may download 11 gb in one day or download less than 1 gb in a day. It all depends on how busy I am... 
5 people use my 5 mbit pipe; 2 of them being heavy users (My sister and I) and the other 3 being very light users.
Stay away from the blasted caps as I'm already dealing with threshold caps to begin with! Not to mention, $60 per month for just 5 mbits! -- ISP: CableOne 5 mbit/500 kbit |

 | reply to R4M0N R4MON,
You hit the nail square on the head!! People need to think ahead and realize most household devices will need to be connected to the internet in the near future. So will increase the amount of data flow to the average household. Just using Netflix watch instantly puts me over the 10 GB limit, not to mention all my other surfing and devices. |
