"He also argued that even though a 250 GB bandwidth cap is generous in today's terms, it may not be sufficient in the future, especially as bandwidth-needy, high-definition video becomes more common."

Just sayin...

Well, as more people reach that cap, don't you think it could be lifted as it may not be as sufficient as it once was?

Just sayin....

The whole reason for the cap is they're worried about BW usage.

So why not instead of imposing caps, develop/invent better forms of data transfer so that 250gb/mo isn't a big issue.

Even with Hughes net, once the cap was reached it took a week to refresh and even with that it the performance gradually went up every day. And Hughes net was an expensive, yet, extremely shitty service. Seriously, I paid $75 a month ($500 for the dish..no bullshit) for it and the speed was slower than the lowest speed of DSL.

Apparently it is, otherwise, nothing would be done about it.

It's done because people wanted a specific number. They wanted a number they could see. And bitching because there wasn't anywhere that said...what that number was. Now there is.
