I've been reading a bunch of the threads about shared hosting and have looked at a number of hosts. One thing I've noticed that pisses me off is that most hosting companies don't list their bandwidth overcharge rates.

What good is it to say "One Month, 20gb bandwidth, only $9.95!!" when the bw overage cost could be huge?

I currently use Webair, they do list their overage costs, and they're pretty high - $2.00 per gig over.

A number of people say that BW shouldn't be more than about $0.75 per gig, max.. anyone have shared hosts at that price?
