More and more people are downloading, Skyping, using BBC iPlayer, etc - you find that a lot of businesses have the same problems (having to increase their bandwidth purchases) as staff use the network for things other than work. VM obviously did not correctly forecast bandwidth growth requirements.
I speak from experience, having managed IT Infrastructure for a number of companies.

What with more and more ways of eating up bandwidth, I believe the days of a supposed "unlimited" usage are numbered. As opposed to introducing ever more draconian stm limits, I personally would prefer to be charged by what I use, at least that way I get to use the speed I pay for. To me its the lesser of two evils.
