You paid more for only “burst” availability and not minimal bandwidth.

WRONG! I do NOT have to pay an overage fee until I downloaded MORE than a TERABYTE in 30 days. I work from home and use the computer at least 8 hours a day and don't even come close to that limit. The highest month I've ever had was 320 GIG

They pay an overage fee the second they collectively pass 85 GIG.

TWO totally different prices. One charges HIGH rates for MOBILITY ( 4G Cell service..) the other is much more liberal in terms of cost because a desktop computer has NO mobility.

You didn’t read that properly. You pay for “100/MB” and “1 TB.” I get that. But you don’t always have 100/MB speed. You often have “congestion” that slows it down. Buffering makes it seem okay until you do real-time stuff like Skype calling.

Your congestion is from the $10/month people from whom you could not be protected. These people have no priority over you in a “net neutrality” world.

You pay for a high speed, but it’s only burst speed and not a “minimum guaranteed” rate because you can’t be prioritized over the freeloaders.
