Yes there are people who get away with lots and lots of movies and music etc out of it....but I am almost positive that I could hit the 30gb limit within 4 weeks by downloading reasonable legal software/services (and yes, on a consitant basis) I used to regularly hit 15gb a month on 512k connection....and that was purely legal distributions and other services. I have not monitored my connection since......however I am sure I breach the softcap on multiple occasions (am monitoring now).

If they want to be the "all singing all dancing" CableCo....they should provide for high usage users by providing a higher tariff perhaps?
