But yes the pricing structure does vary.

The rip-off for 95th percentile billing only happens when a couple spikes happen for a couple hours each during the current month.
If you commit to 40mbit/sec burstable for the month you pay for your min of 40mbit/sec + the overage in your monthly usage.
So, lets say you commit to 1mbit/sec burstable and you get a few 'The Hun (tm)' listings during that month, you're 95th percentile might be somewhere like 2-3, maybe even 5mbit/sec while you may have used only 1mbit or 1.5 on avg.
