Now that CenturyLink has TV over internet (Prism)

Now that CenturyLink has TV over internet (Prism) they want to limit subscribers usage so that they cannot stream many movies from Netflix and others without consequences. Must make subscribers use prism if they want to watch television.

Well your 250 GB cap is better than the 100 GB Charter has on it's 15 Mbps service.

And I think that is where caps should be enforced. Peak hours only. That way customers have the option to move their traffic to off-peak hours, much the way I can make a call after 9pm if I don't want to use my cell minutes.
