A very few well organized strategies have moved all the network cost burden to the ISPs and then the users.
Have ISP operating costs per sub gone up?

I seem to recall that monthly operating costs for cablecos/telcos for high-speed internet is roughly $8/sub. [Edit: And that's a ceiling, some can do it for less.]

Makes me feel even happier now to know that Comcast is making money hand over fist when they rape me for $60 every month for allegedly "high speed" Internet.

For the ultra-high end terabyte downloaders that this is marketed at... I would have to guess a yes on that one. But that was not my point.

And a hard cap can put a stop to that. Anyways let's have fun with math $8 per sub, then 7 cents per GB. So a $60 monthly charge for internet would mean someone would have to use 750 GB per month before the ISP loses money. Since Comcast has a 250 GB cap what exactly is the issue?

$8?? I pay Verizon $21.99 for 1M/384K DSL service every month, I wish mine was $8 a month as I'd love to use the extra $13.99 elsewhere.

Did you already drink the Cool-Aid? What makes you think this is actually targeted at ultra-high end terabyte downloaders?

Alleged "high speed"? What does that mean? You don't get it? Or is it not what you define as fast? Are you one of those who want 10g up and down for $20 a month?
