Re: Net Neutrality advocate.

If everyone saved until that point wouldn't that make that the new peak time? If everyone maxes out a connection it seems to me that would disqualify it for non-peak.

Providing a hard cap may slightly reduce their total bandwidth usage over a period of time but by their own admission only 2% of users would even reach said cap. I don't see them going much over it (using comcast's cap as an example). And they are companies, don't be so naive as to think they'll invest extra money into their infrastructure. Extra money mostly goes to employees (higher ups) or REQUIRED upgrades to keep up with competition.

you don't count Boost as an upgrade? Wifi from Cablevision? SDV by cable companies, DOCSIS 2.0 that Adelphia put their entire network on instead of 1.0 or 1.1?

My cable provider has 2.0 and 3.0 coming out within the next year. Those are upgrades. Also look at speed that is not being released those are upgrades. New modems are upgrades. Don't forget your tech support that is sometimes based in your area.

Not all companies take the profit and give bonuses and not all companies have "competition" especially Ohio. WOOO 1.5Meg dsl compared to 8meg cable? Who are you really going to pick? or 12meg cable compared-uncapped unthrottled compared to 1.5meg DSL.
