Huh? 30GB? There are still ISPs who think they can limit peoples
bw usage? I thought these went the way of the dodo a long time ago.
Or is this just a Japanese phenomena?

Not talking about that i regularly make >10GB traffic in a day on
a slow 5M ADSL connection and >100G/month is the norm. I'd expect
that my bandwidth usage on a 100Mbps line would be quite a bit
higher.
