Re: Even with this article, it has already become clear

said by Bill Neilson:

Also, who here actually expects the ISP's to raise their caps anytime soon? Anyone? The ISP's will soon release statements claiming that "Consumers dont want caps raised" and that their studies found that "99.9% of customers say caps dont need to be raised"

To put it another way, how many Mr. Joe Consumer customers (outside of us here at DSLR) even know there are caps in place or if they do, understand what it means? Not many. None will find out until someone streams or downloads too much and gets bill shock from overusage charges.

So you've got a good point--consumers may not say they want caps raised...because they don't even now they are capped!
