And so it begins a 250gb cap can’t wait to see this number get smaller and smaller over the years, that’s like having unlimited minutes on your cell phone and your cell phone provider telling you that they are going to charge you the same amount but now you’ll only have 250 minutes of talk time…and here is just another way the U.S. dollar is losing its value, at least on the consumers side

Comcast - "I'll sell you a nickel and 2 pennies for a dime! that means you get 3 coins for only one!"

Need downloads - get two cheep accounts and mux them in house :P


Just called comcast in my area (PCB, Fl) and they are not aware of these plans yet. Too bad I wanted to upgrade :(

The new services will also require installation of a DOCSYS 3 modem and maybe new router. Many routers only connect at 10mbps on the modem interface.

Also keep in mind that you are unlikely to reach those speeds for many downloads due to server loads and distance. Many file transfers don't use all the bandwidth on existing service levels.

Since No additional data can be added, its' in Comacast intrest to clear line as fast as possible, keeping it open for larger subscriber pool. Cost is too high for No additional data, Save Your Money, Avoid Problems with large files like Blu Ray could bring & download in your off times, saving$70 to $120 monthly, Telco probably has No cap, as its Old to Data transfer.

Higher speed Frees Up Line time, Making Comcast additional revenues with more subscribers per line serviced each second. up to 10X more, isn't that enough?
STeWie drashek.

this is a disturbing trend, cause i think it will become a trend. All the other companies are watching comcast and if its customers (Ediots) dont stand up, we end up getting screwed. No shame what so ever in their game.

Still better than many UK ISP with only 4Gb a month Allowance and Vigirn media going to 50Mb will most likely keep 4gb allowance and keep uplaod at 512kb or may be 786kb 

so when u think ur getting 50mb download and 10mbps upload with 250gb allowance (currently no uk 50mb service)
or 22mbps download and 5mbps upload with 250gb allowance and UK only gets 20mbps download and 512kb upload with 4gb allowance, id says its a better deal then what we brits get !!!!!
