New customers Beaumont, Texas, will be offered a caped cable internet service from Time Warner. Ranging from 5 to 40 GB, the services will limit the amount of data traffic that users generate from their web surfing habits. If the customer goes over the capped bandwidth, then Time Warner will charge extra per gigabyte used. Time Warner defended the decision by stating that it would be “the fairest way to finance the needed investment in the infrastructure.” DSL Reports believes that this will help Verizon’s uncapped FiOS product against Time Warner’s limited cable service. I tend to agree, but I am also disappointed by Time Warner’s move towards bandwidth per cost idea. |
