Another stupid move by those noob, by apply quota doesn't means will improve browsing speed or low latency, they just capped us to get more user. If they not upgrade no matter how they cap, how they throttled user still get nothing, for those who dreaming after this move will getting low latency or fast browsing you better wake up, since the first day they throttled us we never get any improvement. Shame on you TM -.-"

Bandwidth capping for high speed is actually like driving a Ferrari but the road is just 1km.

Speaking of retards, that is one of the most retarded comments I have ever read.

Get your calculator out and do the math. Just average streaming video, browsing, and gaming will exceed 10GB per month. 1 hour of MMO alone is over 50MB. Average streaming video size is 40MB for 10 minutes, and that is NOT HD. HD video is double the size, or 80MB. I'm sure one with such a limited mental capacity such as yourself can quickly come to the realization that the goal here is for TM to save on international/backbone bandwidth. The lower the cap, the more money they save.

If I ever see such an ignorant and foolish comment from you again, I will not hesitate to poke holes in your flawed logic.  hmm.gif

But even its Liberty plan, which costs $69.95 and offers 12GB a month - after which the extreme speed is slowed to the speeds of last century - only allows you 20 hours of video watching a month, provided you do nothing else. That's about 45 minutes a night.

No wonder so many people do their YouTube watching at work.

Had the US and rest of the world had similar practices, requiring users to carefully watch their megabytes, YouTube and similar services would never had been conceived, let alone put into practice. Perhaps the carriers would have hosted content, under the cap, but then we would be in a world where they decided what we saw rather than the demonstrably better one where that choice is truly free.

As 500GB per month cost the ISP about RM220 so 200GB cost RM88. I'm sure TM can spare a cap of 100GB per month for 1mbps.
