I'm at 200GB used this month on Comcast

I've exceeded the limit before and nothing has happened so far. Albeit it was a small amount over.
 
If you don't max out your downloads every month, then they'll more than likely ignore a one time overage....

\cut back on downloading so much tentacle pron....
 
I just checked my firewall, I'm at 180GB. 780GB since mid august. Not bad. I thought I did way more than that. I'm glad I don't have to worry about it either way, because my ISP is not capped. Time to fire up more torrents! I want to try to hit 1TB in a month. I think I'll make this a challenge. 😛
 
Uploading offsets downloading, so if you downloaded 300GB but uploaded 400GB, Comcast owes YOU 100GB at $10/per GB. Think of it like solar energy. This is why RIAA is mad at all the heavy P2P users who make shitload of money.
 
My solution to Comcrap was a four letter "word" starting with F...

It ends with S. 😛

If you cannot get FIOS in your area that's too bad.
My brother is a bandwidth PIG and we've never had an issue. Even with the connection tapped out >50Mbps 24/7. Fuck nazicast. With a spoon crapped out of a moose's ass. Exactly 2.87 times...
 
I can't believe they haven't started lowering caps and jacking up fees in the US of A yet. At $50 or so a month, I get a 50Gb/month limit. Makes Netflix/any streaming service pointless. It's funny too because apparently all the film studios except Disney are about to start a "cloud" movie buying service.

That's why I never bought into Netflix. I think that's the ultimate reason for the caps. Artificially limits the amount of online video you can consume so it can't outright replace traditional cable. That way they can keep dinging you twice. At least that's the best theory I can come up with.
