| | Posted: | | | | Comcast has even said that 98% of their users never hit 250GB. It's the 2% hogs they are after.
One guy was doing a terrabyte a month and was sent a letter to cut back. So, he dropped to 750MB a month and got a second letter. He dropped to 500GB per month and then got booted.
IMO, 250GB is very generous considering what others with caps are offering. | | | | Signature banned: Reason out of date... | | | | Last edited: by NewEnglander |

I read about a guy that edits digital photos for a living and downloads about 80GB a week and how he doesn't know whats going to happen. I just wish Comcast would offer an option for more bandwidth per month. Not that I use 250BG, at least as far as I know. | | | Schultzy - http://www.michaelschultz.net
