In certain areas both Verizon and Comcast have ridiculous 100 megabit speeds (I believe Verizon offers 200 Mbps in NOVA). I honestly don't get why anyone needs that kind of speed or willing to pay $100+ a month for an internet connection. 15 Mbps gets you all the content that can be had and at $30 a month with the threat of terminating service every six months keep it at that price that's all I need.

As for the 2% being affected, well when that 2% accounts for 25+ percent of all the traffic it's probably a good idea to give those mofos the boot or make them pay more. Asking users not to go over 50 GIG in a month sounds very reasonable.
