Comment So what about services that stream video? (Score 1) 591

If they are going to be capping the monthly usage what about services like NetFlix that offer (now unlimited for some plans) video streaming? These videos are obviously going to be a good size (probably 300mb-1gb, haven't tried it personally). I also heard that iTunes is letting you rent movies via download. All these new services are coming out that require heavy bandwidth, and the ISPs response is to cap it? If they do cap it, what kind of cap are we talking about. I currently have a 10mbps connection and pay $70/mo for it.. if its capped at 10-20gb/mo (although I probably would never use that). That pretty much limits you to what you can do... I didn't pay extra for a faster line so I could download less...
