One day in the not to distant future, we will all be using 100's of GB of data a month and no one will think twice about it. It's inevitable. Data caps are the dinosaurs of the tech world. How can we progress if we purposely limit the very technology that we are producing? Anyone remeber a time when we didn't have unlimited texting for instance? It's just a matter of time.
Today should be that day. Data usage is cheap and they know it. All of us are bent over backwards without so much as a hair pull and a smile. It's ludicrous. I do like what T-mobile is doing though with their streaming music being free. I don't know what the conditions are, but their advertisements state that they will not count streaming music against your data. They do offer unlimited data so there's a bit of a conflict there in my mind, but that's another story.
As for VZW, it would be unreasonable to expect that a corporation is going to actually allow unlimited data users to use their data with ease. They should not give two ***** about it, but they're constantly looking for ways to strengthen their bottom line. They do not care about customers, not at all. This goes for AT&T as well. They're not in the business to care though.
