What with all the updates for antivirus, windows or steam there is no way that you could go through the amount of bandwidth that some people use. I am referring to the power users not the occasional user who goes slightly over the cap, but there really are some people who have to downloads gigs and gigs of data day after day. What do people find to download when they are hitting 50 gig+ a week is totally beyond me. And i still maintain that no way is someone who is hitting that kind of usage is totally 100% legit.
