Time Warner tries again, fails to justify caps and charges
,----[ Quote ]
| Time Warner Cable has increased all of its Internet data caps, added some new
| ones, and generously offered to limit overage charges to $75/month. Perhaps
| that's because the company's broadband operations are actually earning more
| cash and have lower expenses than they did in 2007, making TWC's stated
| rationale for the caps less tenable.

Why Cable ISP Capping is the New DRM, and Suck
,----[ Quote ]
| I, like many people, have been subscribing to Internet connection services
| since the days of 300 baud modems. Then I upgraded to 14.4k, 36.6k, 56k, DSL,
| and now cable. Unfortunately, due to where I am living today, I'm stuck on 3
| Mbit Verizon DSL service, which is often running at less than 1 Mbit.
| Thankfully, my service doesn't have a download cap on it--at least not yet
| anyway.
