250GB Bandwidth by Comcast
B-Clark:
I went to the Comcast use page and found that I was doing a combined download/upload(seed) of over 350GB in November 2010, so I checked their pricing on Business Internet, since I have internet only.
Business Internet is only $5 more then Residential Internet, with no use cap, for the same speed service, over the same cable.
The only drawback is a 1, 2 or 3 year plan, rather then month to month service.
Comcast Residential:
Comcast Customer Central (Name and password required)
Users & Settings
High-Speed Internet Data Usage
View Details
If you want to do a LOT of torrenting, especially full-time seeding, then the Business Internet is the way to go.
In uTorrent 2.20, the new Preferences "Transfer Cap" page says I was seeding 200GB and downloading 80GB over a 30 day time period.
That doesn't take into account DDLs done separate from uTorrent though.

It says I have a 250GB cap but I've gone over it multiple times and never been warned/informed.

I probably go, uploads and downloads combined, 400gbs a month
as far as I know (and I use comcast) my parents haven't gotten complaints
Sylian:
Oh silly America, having this problems.
In Slovenia (Europe .........), we have unlimited bandwith.
Sadly, not that cheap as in Romunia, but still. We pay ~70 dollars a month for digital TV, 2 phone numbers, internet (12Mbps/1Mbps).
Well, can't wait for optic fibre connections.
Bandwith >;o

Have you ever seen Proin's speeds and the price he pays? It's ridiculous I'm so fucking jealous >_<
