Both experienced users and newbies download small files and very big files. They both can use well below the caps or well above them.
A few gamers know the pings are no better but use 3Mb because of the upload speed

You're right. Back in the days when 56Kbps modems were fast, my cousin who hardly ever used the net had ISDN just to show off. Another of my friends who would be absolutely fine with the 300Kbps package has the 1.5Mbps one, just because they can afford it!
The main reason I'm planning on upgrading to 3Mbps is for the doubled upload speed from the 2Mbps package. I've wanted to do this for a long time, but now at least I have the cap to justify my action
