SubscribeDL.TV addressed the issue of bandwidth metering when Time Warner announced its earliest cap tests on Beaumont, Texas. The parameters of the debate have largely remained unchanged since then. A 40GB cap, still in place in Beaumont, doesn’t impact the casual web browser and e-mail reader. But it takes out those who want to use the Internet to watch multimedia or download files. Time Warner happens to be in the business of providing the former, which is what raised a lot of suspicion about the cap model.
The question ultimately comes down whether customers want Time Warner, or any other cable company for that matter, to effectively regulate through the wallet what people do with their online connection.
One guy is adamant about caps, the other looks like he could be victimized by Time Warner’s Re-Education efforts, because he assumes that customers are primarily using their connections for web browsing and e-mail. However, the paradigm is starting to change as younger users get online. What motivated our parents to get online will not be what motivates everyone going forward. 
Garnett is mostly known for his online videos and podcast at 1up so it’s good to see understands the weight of the situation.
Yes, yorg, your awesome, I’m glad Garnett found work after the massive firings when UGO took over 1up. I think since Garnett is a PC gamer he would understand the usage caps more so than his counterpart, since he is heavily vested in products like direct to drive, impulse and steam. I’m so glad that some one in the media field is taking note of time warners asshat behavior.
I’m awesome?
