Re: Comcast 250GB limit quote: To run afoul of these limits, Comcast said, customers would have to do one of the following: send 50 million e-mails; download 62,500 songs; download 125 standard-definition movies; or upload 25,000 high-resolution digital photos.
. . . or download 2 hours per night of Hi-Def programming with your DirecTV DVR.
2Hrs = 10GB 30 days = 300GB
So, watching ONE movie per night that you download with DirecTV's new VOD service will put you over the cap. -- Ö¿Ö The Rules of Spam | Maryland's Newest Anti-Spam Law Where are we going? And what's with the hand basket? |

Well, since you would use one of Comcast's competitor, you would be an "abuser". -- Treason is a matter of dates |

That's always been apparent to me, since they charge me a penalty of $15.00 more a month because I choose to go with DirecTV instead of their crappy cableTV. -- Ö¿Ö The Rules of Spam | Maryland's Newest Anti-Spam Law Where are we going?

I keep wondering why a satellite video provider can't send THEIR video product, to THEIR customers, over THEIR own system? Why don't users/pundits complain about their lack of capacity? |
