Geore Carlin once said, that even in a fake democracy, the people should get what they want some of the time. 
For me it was the fact they wanted to cap everyone at 25 gigs. Every gig after that was upwards of $2.
I dont pay for cable TV, I watch everything online through different services like Netflix etc. and stream it throughout my condo. Im also an avid PC gamer. I currently have a 100gig cap and still occasionally go over that.
Had the change happened I would have been forced to no longer use internet services as they would rack up my bill to ridculous prices and I'd be forced to go back to paying for cable TV.
Thats just my reason, I'm sure a number of other people have there own!
