I’m not shocked in the slightlest. And I have no problem with download caps. But when you advertise something as “unlimited” and then you a) short the actual delivered bandwidth and then b) put a cap on it, that is when you piss me off.

I’ll just sit back with my 1.5 Mb DSL, thank you. *grumbles*

Wow, I guess Comcast didn’t think of it first. Damn us (including me) Americans and copying stuff from outside the country :P

In Canada, using Shaw, subscribers have a 5 Mbps connection and a 60 gig cap per month with the option to “upgrade” to a 10 Mbps connection with a 100 Gig cap.

Sorry guys, no pitty… especially since there really is no alternative.

I’m from Australia… i would kill for a 250gb cap plan, your hard pressed to find a plan for under 100$ per month that has 50-80gb cap… let alone 250gb
