Here?s how it justifies it: ?250 GB/month is an extremely large amount of data, much more than a typical residential customer uses on a monthly basis. Currently, the median monthly data usage by our residential customers is approximately 2 - 3 GB. To put 250 GB of monthly usage in perspective, a customer would have to do any one of the following:
-- Send 50 million e-mails (at 0.05 KB/e-mail)
-- Download 62,500 songs (at 4 MB/song)
-- Download 125 standard-definition movies (at 2 GB/movie)
-- Upload 25,000 hi-resolution digital photos (at 10 MB/photo).?
Of course HD streaming will also speed up that limit.
