said by DaveDude:The problem here is everyone wants high bandwidth connections, yet they would only use a fraction of them. I really dont see a normal user using more then 15 M connection. People should be demanding more content. ie Netflix, gaming, HD-TV. Rather then the constant shrill ' we dont have the fastest. ' . The result would be these companies would have to upgrade to keep up with consumer demands. Buggy , horse .etc.
No, they would not upgrade. Their answer is to impose usage caps that effectively transform the $100 50/20 connection you have into an overpriced illusion. They will also throttle you if you try to use your connection to its fullest.
