We're currently in major talks also for metered service. It's only about 1-2% that will even be affected but that 1-2% is using about 70-120gb per month of download data PER customer.

The truth of the matter is this: We are all selling bandwidth for a living. The more I sale - the more I make. I don't want to short anyone and I like the "hogs" on my service and cater to these folks since I make more money per month off these folks. If you aren't "metering" and charging by the gig - - you will miss the boat since you must actually have an all you can eat buffet for $35.00 - - - Good luck!
