said by Killersaurus:The carriers are not out anything, so there shouldn't be any problem for them to credit people's bills. They shifted a few more bits around on their hardware... so what? In this instance, whether they move 1GB or 1000GB it doesn't matter one iota. They own the hardware; it's already installed and powered up to do what it's made to do. It's either idle or working and it costs the same amount in the end. Carriers have no problem to overcome except for their own greed.
Right -- because once its there - its paid for. Kind of like when you buy a house with a mortgage -- if you live in it, its not costing you anything extra to have 5 of your buds move in to the house.
