The Globe and Mail reported today that Rogers plans to charge users who exceed their allowed bandwidth $5 per gigabyte, up to a maximum of $25. It’s bad enough that they already shape traffic on their network and charge for 7Mbps 10Mbps but only deliver 4-5. With the popularity of online video sharing, photo sharing, video chats, and streaming music (all legal activities) a family of four could go over their month quota, and that $70 a month Internet bill just went over $100. That’s a lot of money for Internet access.
