15gbs for a tv/movie rip? Lol. Beyond excessive. I was downloading homeland at a gig apiece. How you gonna spend 15gbs downloading some movie and complain the company wants to up your price? you are literally who they are targeting. No reason whatsoever you need to dl a 15gb tv show fukk outta here

What i dont get is that these companies make billions a year how much it costs to build a landmass with fiberoptic networks and the servers to host the pcs searching on them??? You make Billions, you have the power, the engineers, the technicians at your fingertips and the first thing in your mind is to put data caps and force customers to pay more because you "Can't handle it?"

WTF??!?!!?

COMCAST CAN SUCK MY dikk...

I've never seen a 15GB TV episode.

And 8GB to 15GB for 1080p Blu Ray Rips.

That's actually not even the biggest file you can get either. There are rips that are like 40GBs and up.

Now that is excessive

No no no.... your paying them a $5 surcharge to use their program to ACCESS the content... it does NOT say anywhere in the article that all the networks, Netflix, HBO, ETC are included for free, :mjlol: it's not free your paying for the comcast internet PLUS $5 on top of that, Plus you STILL will probably will pay the usual access fee to utilize netflix THROUGH them!!! :bryan:

IT'S COMCAST.... :bryan: they loosing money because people NOT buying the cable packages anymore they just need the internet so either they increase the prices of the internet to make money back off the people or they find new slick ways to get over on people...

You think it's funny, it's only gonna get worse because there's no net neutrality anymore so they can throttle you and charge you MORE for you to use a high speed data lane off the rip because they are greedy ass b*stards...:hhh:

The internet & access to it should be FREE...:birdman:
