Re: Fun with Math said by patcat88:Well, with metered billing, you be paying for your ISP to buy a HD for data retention every month to store your traffic. It works perfectly. Metered Billing only counts how much you use NOT what you are using it for. It just updates a counter associated with your account.
IOW: It is like the trip meter on you car's odometer - It shows how far you have driven since it was last reset, NOT where you were driving (which would need a "Black Box" with a GPS unit). |

1 edit | But when you pay $40 a month for 80 GB, $5 went to pay for HD that will the 80GB you moved that month, full packet capture. If you use less than your bucket, cheaper for the ISP to store your data traffic. If if you move 250GB a month, about $20 of your monthly bill went to buy HD space to store your 250GB for 2 years. |
