The cable internet connection has a ceiling as well as a flat fee per
month.  I never exceed it so it isn't a problem but it could be and I know
many who have overshot and had to pay the price.

I have a flat fee but it does have limits.  The LANs here are a totally
different story and bandwidth isn't an issue but even that costs, albiet
not as much over time and has no restrictions other then physical ones.  A
couple hours of streaming audio/visual stuff, even to just myself, pretty
well much covers the cost when compared to an internet connection which
offers far less then I do.  :-)

Life is good,
Maurice
