Apparently you weren't around during the AOL $2 per hour days. It caused severe corruption

Bandwidth issues should lead to new innovation & infrastructure. It should not lead to charges which are only a temporary solution to a growing problem.

This will stifle new technologies & EVERYONE outside of the ISP's agree with this principle. I listened to a hearing on CSPAN radio for 3 hours in traffic the other day. The only supporters of tiered charges were related to the telecom industry.

And see....here you are...a telecom employee & promoting a tiered program. Go figure.
