Comcast Capping Their Cable

August 31st, 2008

I figured it was just a matter of time before some internet providers started capping their ‘unlimited’ data plans. I wonder how many customers actually exceed the 250 GB limit they want to impose?

Comcast has made it official: Home Internet service customers are limited to 250GB of data per month. According to the company, the move is in response to heavy usage by some customers that can cause network congestion.

They say that 1% of their customers will be affected. Comcast has 24 million customers. That means 240,000 people are ruining it for everyone else. I think they should run a contest and offer a couple free weeks at Mykonos villa rentals for everyone who doesn’t abuse the system. What on Earth takes so much bandwidth?
