Adam:

Metered pricing is fine, as long as there exists a robust enough market in bandwidth so that there is the opportunity for competition to exist.

My belief is that the hassle of watching your bandwidth is high enough that even those who would never approach the metered limit would prefer un metered service

Of course, the devil is in the details. The metering must be content neutral, with respect to content and protocols used.

There will develop hybrid plans, I would think, which would be metered with respect to peak hours, and unmetered for off peak hours, very much like cell phone plans are now.

Two-part pricing makes a lot of sense, and is something that merits close consideration.
