Comment on AT&T will cap DSL and U-Verse internet, impose overage feesparentComments−thefool15yThat said, burst speed is what matters if you are streaming or doing something else that is similar.The typical user has no need for sustained output unless they are torrenting things, being used as a supernode for skype, ect.I do like the idea though.−jarpadat15yIt depends on what is meant by "burst". With a 250GB cap, you can use your 24Mbit UVerse "burst" speed 3.2% of the time.I don't think it's unreasonable to look at something that is true 3% of the time and call it an unfair claim.
