Time Warner attempts to monetize bandwidth

Proud owners of broadband in the contiguous US know no such silliness as a "Bandwidth cap," but if greedy ol' Time Warner has its way, it could be rolling out tiered pricing by the end of the year. If you always scoffed at the Euro broadband market and their draconian (Yet profitable!) restrictions, the mighty dollar is a fine seductress.

Sad.

    Down in Florida, Crazy Joe already has two options for his Time Warner broadband (RoadRunner) account: Regular flavor or Slowed-down-artificially flavor, which costs $11/month less.

    Let's just hope they don't get it in their heads that they could make some extra moneys by placing a transfer limit on your account...

    I'll fix'em good then. Boyo they won't tell me how much I can download. Keep your TV sets on Texas if this happens.
