Comcast’s data caps are currently in effect in 16 regions with another 18 regions getting the bandwidth cap on the above said date.
The company settled on the 1 TB data cap after it experimented with various configurations over the past several years in various areas.
Comcast says only a small minority (less than one percent) of its customers actually use more than one terabyte in a given month. For now, then, the data cap shouldn’t be an issue for most people. One terabyte of usage is enough to stream 600 to 700 hours of HD video, play an online game for 500 days straight, or stream 15,000 hours of music, according to Comcast.
Anyone who wants to estimate their data usage can use Comcast’s online tool. Xfinity customers can also look at their actual data usage online by logging into their account.
