I have heard of people being d/c by comcast for exceeding this, but in every case were talking about at least doubling this bandwidth in three consecutive months. And all they did was switch ISP. Until you get a letter, I'd pay no attention.

Business Class Comcast is the best choice for heavy bandwidth users that are stuck with Comcast. The downside? 10% or 20% more money and possibly a contract. Once you go that way, you'll never go back. Unlimited bandwidth, faster speed, fixed IP, no restrictions and all ports open.

I have all that anyway with Virgin :P
Only drawback is Virgin have a "fair use" policy which caps me well under my limit for 5 hours if I download/upload too much during the peak period, so I capped utorrent during these hours to run close to the line, and problem solved ^_^

As soon as I got Comcast Business Class my connection spiked and I was able to download and upload and still surf the internet as if nothing has happened. I've done over 7TB of download and uploading the first two months, over 7TB to be accurate and I recorded it and waited for Comcast to give me a call. They never called. The lady said "It's for your business, we don't care what you do with it". Lol!

Ok, that's pretty neat. I never run that high anyway tbh, mostly just uploads ::)
It's taken me about 6 months to get through ~100gig of videos. I don't understand how people get through such vast quantities.
