I was disagreeing with the general argument being made about Netflix/Pandora not being able to consume the entire bandwidth allotment for the month. My first scenario (the one with 3 roommates) is not common, I'll agree to that, but the second scenario (wife and a kid) is much more likely to happen. We also do not subscribe to cable because of multiple reasons (advertisements, we consume seasons at a time, etc.).
This is one of the reasons I migrated to a Business Class account. Netflix helped put our bandwidth usage way over the cap.
Something I learned about Comcast is that they don't pursue every case over 250GB. There was a period of about 3-4 months where the roommates and I consistantly used more than 500GB/month. It wasn't until we hit 1.541 TB in one month that they called. This leads me to believe that they only pursue cases where there are a lot of high-consumption users in a small area and the top X% get the call.
