So one thing that a lot of people overlook is that even with a data cap the higher speeds is still more convenient if you consume the same amount of stuff. It isn't as noticeable now as it was when speeds went up in the kilobyte ranges thought so many people won't even see the difference especially if they don't hit the cap.
That said, caps are bullshit since network congestion are caused by when people use it at the same tike, not because of the total amount per month.
