Give me 56k dialup and I'll download less because the speed restrictions are too painful to wait out. As bandwidth increases so will consumption. People go for the fastest tier not because they want to save time but because they want to do more. Increasing bandwidth but then imposing caps is simply short-sighted as it doesn`t take into account why people want more bandwidth.
You must be right then. I'll forget all that I learned being involved in consultancy work for a certain consumer body. The socio economic class findings must have been so far from the mark.
