While i understand in theory what they want to do, I would also like to see the numbers. I find it hard to believe the 2% of the customers are slowing down the system in any way. IF cost is an issue, the other 98% would be recovering the cost of the power users.....
Curious as to what the real motivation is here...seems to me they just want to make more money in any way they can...

I don't think that UVerse would count the TV. Yes, it all comes over the same line, but it's different. I think they're just talking data usage.
Also, as nice as remote DVR would be, that's not the case either. The main receiver has a hard drive in it and the other boxes in your house stream from that box, so it's all local. That also means if that box dies, all your shows are gone.
So anyway, yeah, more than likely just data, but it's still f*cked up.
If there was ANY other choice in my area I'd switch in an instant. Unfortunately that's not the case
