1GB of volume over the course of a month is 3kb/sec sustained throughput over the month. (1000000000*8/(86400*30))
$5 per 3kbit/sec means that 155mbit link would cost...$251,100/month. (155000000/((1000000000*8)/(86400*30))*5)
We call that "Time Domain Multiplexing-based profits".
Comparing volumetric pricing with rate-based pricing is one of the best ways of tucking in *lots* of room for profit. :)
Actual bandwidth isn't bad at all - so that 1GB can go rapidly. Practically, networks and customers all find ways to get that 1GB (or 50MB) to take them as far as it impossibly can. Mark.
