And you could see it coming. On the off chance you have a working internet connection with Shaw, news has it that they'll be imposing a bandwidth cap and extra fees for those who exceed it. Remember, the trend in the information age (and computers by extension) is to bring you MORE for LESS, but there isn't so much profit in that. And before you think that this will only affect a few people, see it for what it is - a foot in the door to start charging even higher rates for less service. The internet relies on increasing bandwidth for it's evolution - more bandwidth does NOT cost Shaw more money, but it will be soon costing YOU more money.
