My only issue is that the so called ceiling is a "limit".. and limits are not acceptable. When the so called "limit" is hit, they need to either throttle speeds down to a much lower level, OR charge for overage.

But, do you know what the charging for overage really says to me? ... it says "We know that liberal socialists are going to tear into our core business over their golden internet service and hurt us bad, so get used to us shifting our income to the internet where you want it to be"...

It's called priming the marketplace.

Everyone wants to shove everything and the kitchen sink down the internet line... and that's fine.. many people see "great savings" with the internet.. however, it's a pipe dream. The costs that you avoided in savings only come back in another form elsewhere.. what you're going to see is that most of your money will go down the pipe in the form in the internet.

You're going to see the internet, and services, become that of the airlines and their baggage fees. I guess no one saw bag fees coming a while ago when they started charging $10 to book a ticket over the phone? Only, the fees people are going to get hit for, online, are going to make baggage fees look like a cake walk.

Expenses don't go away, unless you do with out. They only go to other places. That's how the economy works.
