Comment on Broadband Caps: Maybe It’s Not Just About TV by Scott from Aus

You should all look at the way ISP's in Australia work. We have had download limits, ever since we had internet. And we are only just getting some decent limits now. I think its basically because bandwidth to overseas cost to much for ISPs not to have limits. There are many different ways it can be done. Most plans are capped and only count downloads. So streaming content is not an issue. There are some plans where uploads are included, and downloads from some providers are free. They also have peak and off-peak limits. And shaped plans, which basically means if you go over your limit, they reduce your bandwidth for the rest of the month and don't charge you overuse fees. However, ISPs that charge overuse fees, normally charge it at a ridiculous rate. Such as $2 p/Mb and have a limit of how much can be charged. Anyway, its a system that promotes competition. But in the end the consumer has to be careful or they have a massive bill to pay.
