Re: Maybe
Personally... I think they need to scale by a factor of 10.
50GB/100GB/200GB/400GB
Lets make at least an assumption or 2 here to show the use/cap ratio:
Road Runner Basic
Speed: 1.5M x 384K
Basic Tier – 10GB 1.5Mbps = 192kB/second = 474GB/month (30 day). 10:474 = ~ 2.1% usage, not including upload
Road Runner Standard
Speed: 6M x512K
Standard Tier – 20GB = 768KB/second = 1898GB/month (30 day). 20:1898 = 1% usage
Road Runner Turbo
Speed: 10M x 1M*
Turbo Tier – 40GB = 1280 KB/second = 3164GB/month (30 day) 40:3164 = 1.2% usage.
Personally.. I'd expect no less than at 10% usage cap, and would 'push' for 33%.

Don't you get what they're saying? They're saying the LESS Internet bandwidth we give you, the MORE you'll appreciate the bandwidth you DO have! Thus, a better experience.
Besides, you spend too much time on the computer anyway-if we give you less bandwidth, then you'll have more time to read a book, or go outside, or spend with your kids-thus a better experience! |
