Comcast once physically disconnected my line out of the blue.. When I called them about it they admitted they got the wrong house, but that it would take 4 days to get a tech out there to reconnect it.
I think Charter has Comcast beat in the "SUCKS" department.
we a have a 60gb cap in canada.
I love my Cox: $45 a month, DOCSIS3 at 2.0 Mbyte down/275kbyte with no known cap limits.
con: it's in Nebraska
these bandwidth caps don't make sense.
how much damage could 1% of customers do ?
they should set the cap at 400gb.
99% of customers wouldn't reach a fraction of that anyway.
so what harm does the other 1% do?
bandwidth is cheap.
The "harm" is they can't rape you for going over the 250GB cap. If I'm not mistaken soon AT&T will be lowering their cap to 150GB I pray comcast doesn't do this. While I have only gotten close to 250 once or twice I regularly bust 150GB a month.
Too bad ATT and Comcast are the only options in NW Houston. I actually use my HTC Thunderbolt for tethering, get 10mb down with LTE, faster than my DSL connection. Wonder how far I can get before VZW notices and clamps down?
I go over my download cap all the time. It is not a strict 250 and you are out.

To top off the annoyance factor. If you're ever late paying a bill, you pay a late fee....... but if cable is ever knocked out due to a storm or whatever, do we ever get credited for the down time?

What ever happen to Verizon fios, all I hear on the news are At&T and Comcast.
Dr Kevin either your the same person in different forums or you plagiarized.these bandwidth caps don't make sense.

Ya, don't piss the guy off who's on the other line of the phone. I'll sound super helpful and open up a ticket for you, with the lowest priority possible. Hope your connection gets fixed sometime in the month or next month.
Last time someone pissed me off, I changed their logon times in AD (put a note in there about management saying to do this). Then when I was at home, I'd lock out their account via Web Outlook every 30 minutes for a week.

I'm that type of person. I do everything over the net. Why get cable tv, when I can watch the latest shows, commercial free, through torrents. Not to mention earlier, as Canada oddly enough, gets the shows before us. I also watch shows that aren't available in the states and in HD.

250 gb cap. Normal users that more than enough, but what's the point of faster service if not for more bandwith. But hey, I'd happily pay for that right now.
20 gb cap and 30 kBps speed for $130 a month. Go Edge City Networks!
Is that your only option?Oh, did I mention. I also setup and maintain the network. Edge City just provides me the hardware.
I call a Streaming Era is just starting with Netflix, Cloud Computing & storage, and Downloadable Content *Steam*. Now these idiots want to throw caps because they failed to upgrade the network.
I'm in Canada and do the same thing. I just wish we had more options for online legal streaming services aka hulu for example. Only one I've found was called 'crackle' and it has like 120 movies // 70 tv series inc a few anime ones. Nothing of note in terms of anime episodes.
Your file sizes for anime seem unusually large. Uncompressed mpegs or something? I find 0.12GB/120MB is good quality for a 30 minute episode in divx. For HD, 300 is usually fine. 1.2-1.8 GB is what's required for 720p HDTV episodes that are a full hour in length. Cartoons are usually much less b/c of the repeat backgrounds, to an extent and smaller choice of color variation. An early season south park episode for example looks decent 20 MB due to the lack of scene changes. Later more like 50MB.
