I don't use almost any bandwidth outside of Netflix, Steam game downloads, and getting my daily dose of streaming starcraft videos and ntop tells me I averaged 1.7mbps over the last month. Mind you this is on an 8mbps peak connection. With peak speeds of 8m I would be pissed if I was getting 500k, much less if I had a 100m connection and got less than a meg. I have no doubt that if I had a faster connection that I would have used even more bandwidth... With the popularity of streaming video now a 1000:1 or even a 100:1 oversubscription rate is almost definitely just going to cause you headaches... Back in my days of noc, 9 out of 10 bandwidth AUP abusers weren't even using torrents, they were almost all netflix or people that got rid of cable to watch video online.
