You may have heard the term "unmetered" which means something else entirely.
Unmetered bandwidth means that your server is "capped" at a certain bit rate and thus does not need to monitored for billing purposes. ie: if you are on an unmtered 10mbps connection, you will not exceed 3,200 gigs a month because your connection won't let you.
The rule of thumb 1mbps = ~320 gigs.
Feel free to hit me up with any more questions, or if you need some help figuring out your needs.

That's exactly the point with unlimited bandwith. You can get unlimited shared hosting for as low as $ 7.99/month but it's a 5mb/s connection, and that's worth shit. It's like someone selling you unlimited water but you are only allowed to use a 1/8" pipe to syphon it out. Also remember, the system needs juice to operate as well, so a 5 mb/s connection is probably only a 4 in reality.
Someone show me a unlimited bandwith deal with a 100mb/s connection for 7.99/month, that would be nice.
