OS X updates are also over a gigabyte now.

how often do you update or download these files though? how many of those will you need to saturate your 250GB cap in a month?

but like I said above, how you use your connection or what activity you do is irrelevant.

I've downloaded several gigs of updates in a few days between the iPads/iPhones and MacBook updates that had come out. It all adds up.

There may not be a "need" for many people at all but if we're able to watch more HD movies, I'm sure we'd all love that.
