If you download at max capacity all the time (you know, torrent users), then doubling throughput certainly does half the time 'till you hit the cap. Of course, if you never transfer more than 150GB in a month, your speed will have nothing to do with the cap at all.
Frankly, the only people this will affect are the people that have a perpetual massive queue of movies, TV and music to illegally download.
Let me put it another way: the cap on the SECCS server is 50GB/mo. We use about 6-10. The cap AT&T is going to turn on is supposed to be
three times what we've got on our server, and
15 times what we actually use.
