Public rejects Time Warner metered-bandwidth tests

Time Warner Cable is reportedly having trouble finding submissive test
subjects for its proposed scheme of charging US customers by the gigabyte
for their internet service.

Additional trials for the company's new "consumption based billing" regime
were slated to begin in several markets this summer, but public outcry has
made the cable giant retreat from some of its attempts to stuff the
all-you-can-eat internet genie back in the bottle - for now.
