I have been paying $44.95 a month for unlimited use for about 4 years now. Now if they are stating that I'm only allowed so much a month that I can download.. then my bill should be changed to something abit cheaper.. or.. Allow me unlimited and I pay more/same. For me.. I don't live alone.. I live with two other people in my house hold who's lives revolve around the Internet. Some peope just use the Internet to check their email and check up on the latest news.. My house hold uses it 24/7 I've gotten many phone calls/email notices for exsessive bandwidth use from Insight (now Comcast)
Well im an employee, so I cant argue the cost with you (free). What I can tell you is that you are more than welcome to go to another company for cheaper, at the expense of a slower connection of course.


All and all here is why I am putting up such a fuss about it.. Comcast states that this limit will only effect %1 of its customers.. Why go to all this trouble for %1 of its customers? Those being and I quote "People who use home Internet service to run a business) I'm sorry.. but have you ever tried to host a website on a cable line..? Once you get more than 8 people on your server.. The line just boggs down.. I know I ran www.minnietheminx.net on my home server for about two years.. Once the guild got to big.. I transfered it to a pay service.. What comcast is trying to do is put a stop or damper File Sharing... They tried limiting torrent traffic and got sued for that.. So instead lets just put a cap on our service so those "1%" can only share 250GB a month...

By the way.. my mason jar is filled with a strong long island ice tea :thumbsup: not lake water :P
You still come off as "the sky is falling!" attitude. Unless you are in that 1% then what do you care exactly? What exactly about this whole scenerio can you not get over?

1% of millions of customers is quite a bit if you want to get down to numbers. That ONE guy living on a street consuming 1000gb a month in warez and porn is screwing over everyone else on his cable card/node.

Tell you what. Come back when you've actually managed to break 250gb without downloading stuff you are not suppose to and then we can talk.
