kudos:5 | Even a 300GB cap is reasonable for internet video I have a Netflix streaming account and an Amazon Prime free videos account and watch a good amount of videos on my SmartTV with WiFi and get nowhere near the cap. I watch about 10 hrs/week of online video and am on the internet constantly and still don't exceed 50 GBs/mo. If you are approaching or exceeding the caps it is likely you are doing a lot of online backing up of your systems hard disks or are a heavy user of bittorrent file sharing systems.

So what you are saying is, you live by yourself? |

So what you are saying is, a person who lives alone should pay the same price as a family of four? |

Was your bill cut dramatically to like a few dollars? No? Then you're paying more for less. Stop being so happy about it |

I'm all for a bill-by-byte system. Others will pay more & I'll pay a little less. But most customers prefer flat rate pricing. So I won't hold my breath on seeing a rationale pricing scheme anytime soon.

Only fools believe that such a billing system will ever benefit them for non existent utilization. |

If they're both on the same speed tier.. yes. That's only logical. Last time I checked when I go and buy items anywhere they don't ask me if I'm single or have a family and charge me more if I have a family. |

Santa Monica, CA | Then your same-speed tier is going to have a cap and overage charges.
That's only logical. |
