The typical consumer doesn't actually consume all that much data on a monthly basis. Comcast, for some time, for example, has had a monthly 'cap' of 250 gigabytes per household. But the typical household really consumers about two gigabytes to four gigabytes a month.
Primus, a Bell Canada wholesale customer, apparently is notifying its customers that existing high-speed access customers will soon have 25 GBytes of monthly usage included with their service. Additional usage up to 300 GBytes will be charged at $2 per additional GByte, up to a maximum of $60 a month.
Usage in excess of 300 GBytes per month will be charged an additional $1.10 per GByte. Customers who are worried about the 25 Gbyte cap can buy an 'additional usage plan' costing $5 a month for an additional 40 GBytes, for starters.
