Wired internet providers should not even be thinking about caps below the 250 GB/mo point. Neither of these example speeds can even reach that level, so if you feel the need to cap you are doing it wrong and should rethink your business model.
Why? It's a perfectly reasonable business model - it allows you to skimp on upstream provisioning if on any given day15/16th of your users are at low/zero bandwidth due to hitting their cap *and* allows you to upsell bigger caps. The only downside is that if you do this, you'll only get away with it for like 36 hours before public outrage makes the local public service commission step in with the big hammers and make you behave. Oh, wait...
