Even downloading 40 movies a month.... I like the Forbes reference, they clearly don't know what they are talking about... 2Gb for a movie? No. 700 Mb for a movie that's been re-encoded DixV or 4.4-4.7Gb for a DVDR rip. Downloaders are either going after one format or another, but not both. 10Mb per pic? Good lord, I know a lot of people who have cameras, and only one or two who has the ability to send pics at that resolution (DSLR), everyone else, well it's around 3-4 megs a pic.

Either way, bottom line is 250Gb a month is plenty even for illegal purposes. But then again, once the dust settles from this move, they will lower it to 200Gb and so on and so forth until the Comcast portal and the streaming available there will be the only options available.
