In my house we can have two different Netflix movies downloading and someone browsing the web at the same time. Netflix is a great invention.
Same here, in addition to a foreign-language TVoIP that my wife watches.
Unfortunately, I've recently moved from an area that had no bandwidth cap to an area serviced by Comcast. I've had my internet service a whole two weeks and I see I've already used 68% of my 250GB monthly cap.
Oops. This really sucks.
