sounds like whenever someones asked "why are you downloading so much" the automatic response is: updates/backups/college finals papers and excell spreads...lol

which sounds funny, pirate!

Not saying anythings wrong with that, but grow some ****'s why dont ya!
Sheesh, you do realize not everyone uses their PC to jerk off to right?

If I performed all the backups that I am supposed to, I could easily burn through 200 GB in a month. I run a very small hosting service that I administer remotely. I try to backup everyones site once a week (I also give them an option to do it themselves daily). If I had my own datacenter, I would do it daily. When I download the backups, it is about 25 GB's each time.

My Xbox 360 alone downloads about 25 GB a month. Each movie downloaded in HD (from Xbox Live) is about 4.7 GB and many of the game demo's are between 1 and 2 GB. This doesn't even take into account all the bandwidth used during online game play.

Take into account all the other downloading involved in just general surfing, and web development, 200 GB's is easily attainable for myself without even seeing one money shot.

So basically your assumption that anyone using as much bandwidth as I and others do makes them pirates is not only stupid, it is not backed up by anything other than your unsatisfied libido.

Then you should get a pay for a BUSINESS service and not a residential one.

Maybe you should too? If you get one email about business, or one phone call through your VOIP phone from your job (if you have one), or have to do ANY business related surfing from home, then you should get a business account.

In fact, if anyone from work calls your POTS line, you should call your telephone company and demand you get a business account.

Now, if you would like to re-enter the world of reality, we are all here waiting for you.

Your points are not responsive to the main issue. You are RUNNING a BUSINESS thru your home internet connection. All the points you raise don't address that. Instead they go off on a tangent that has nothing to do with what you are doing.
