HA. That won't happen. There's way much more money to be made in overage charges. I'm not against reasonable caps. Too many fuckers think that because they pay $50 a month they can download 2TB of crap from bittorent.
I feel Time Warner's 40 Gb cap is too low but maybe they'll up it befor they institute it everywhere. Comcast's proposed 250 GB cap is more than reasonable at this point. In 5 years it may not be. Both have insane overage fees. It's doesn't cost them $1-$1.50 per GB in bandwidth. Even at 25¢ per GB they make good coin on overage fees.
By the way they have had caps in Canada for awhile now.
