Yeah, that figures. FIOS is kicking these guys' assess.

Comcast's 200GB cap is almost reasonable, and clearly just meant to limit bittorrent.

Frankly, these claims about what their customers need are probably accurate. But these companies are getting ready for the future. They don't make nearly as much money on bits as they do on services (like premium cable), and they're seeing everything moving towards using more bits. Hulu, iTunes downloads, HD Netflix streaming, etc are all becoming more popular and are using more bandwidth than ever. As these services become more prominent and the quality improves, they'll use more and more data, and suddenly 200GB is going to be easy to hit. 40GB is really easy to hit right now if you use the services I mentioned.

Frankly, it's time to get rid of some of this anti-competition stuff for cable. I've heard nothing but bad things about Time Warner in every aspect of their service, but they're the only game in the towns they're in. FIOS is going to kill these companies. I love having it in my home.
