And if I were running an SP, and I had users busting 250Gb a month I'd kick them off too. I know how much it would be hurting my bottom line to have too many users like that on my network.
I agree, I can't defend pirates, regardless of my personal internet habits.
But as I was saying, I think it's only a matter of time until it's a trivial matter to knock out 250GB of data a month. Especially if, like in Tony's situation, there's more than one heavy users in the house.
I would guess the caps are more to keep people from dumping cable tv and streaming from hulu or netflix.
Oh heck yeah. The ISPs are scared to death. They don't want to become utilities. They make more money on selling you added features (like TV programming packages) than they would if they were solely proprietors of bits.
