I'm wondering how that will effect people with a home network though.. I have no idea how many GB I utilize a month, but my son, while playing Call of Duty, Halo3, XBoxLive.. <shrug> he may use a lot. With 4 PCs, all of which have Itunes and stuff, we could be up there. Who has any clue how much they use in a month???

This will impact hardly anyone. I read that you have to download something like 20 feature length movies per day to reach the limit.

Believe it or not, most carriers cap usage at far less or make you pay for more. And though you may think DSL is the same speed, technically it's not; you just may not notice the difference if you're not using it for streaming media. Cable and fiber are waaaaay faster.

I am happy we don't have Comcast down here.....It was the only carrier where I went to college and the service sucked!
