Less Torrents and freeloaders = better service for the rest of us.
I doubt if any members, except the ones with auto downloaders sucking down sites, will suffer. They might find their connections run faster though which will add to the enjoyment levels.

Wrong.. They're looking to the future when EVERYONE will be eating up a shit load of BW and they want to change things now by pretending to cry about how hard it is for them so they can make buckets of money later.. Can you imagine if they were billing per G like the phone companies bill per minute??? Which is exactly what they want to do... This is all about fucking over the consumer to make as much money for the corporations, aka rich people.
How do you think that's going to affect your membership site sales? Cause now that potential member has to consider that not only does he need to spend $25 to signup to your site, but then he's going to need to spend additional bucks watching all your videos... This is BAD for all online businesses that deliver video content. Nothing like having your market shrink.. Shrink it by making it hard for people with dialup (still a large portion of the surfers) to enjoy your site.. shrink it even more so that only those making decent money can afford to sign up... but blame all the free loader sites out there instead of your own stupidity... Porn needs to be a Motel 6 model, not The 4 Seasons. Fuck there's too many morons in this business...
