Then why not contact that 'small subset of customers' and ask them to 'curb their behavior' or pay for a higher tier or business class?? Seems like that would be a lot less work than this big ole 'new' marketing campaign, and pissing off most of your customers, instead of irking the few you say are causing an issue??

Or just come out and admit it's just a way to milk more from the customers you have while you can?? It's becoming the new advertising. Companies, Conglomerates AND Governments admitting they are screwing us to our face and smirking because they figure we won't do anything about it....

If you're not going over the caps how are you being "milked"? You are really contradicting yourself by claiming that you are not one of those small subsets but then being mad about overages you claim you'll never reach.

today's bandwidth hogs are tomorrow average users you may not be milked today but you will be.

Exactly. Does anyone have any faith that mediacom will increase the limits as average usage goes up with more people using more streaming video?

I have a friend who lives in Nashville one of comcast "test" markets well last year i was trying to explain to him about how bad caps are and he was like i don't have to worry i don't download movies or do any of that illegal stuff. I don't come anywhere close to 300 gb a month. A couple months ago he calls and said he got his first warning from comcast I couldn't help but say I told you so
