Sorry, but I have better things to do with my life.
FB is a waste of time to begin with, now I waste my -and my (soon to be EX) friends time to get a 0.2GB download per month/per friend?
How desperate does one have to be to even bother with this scheme ?

Anyone use netzero still?
I used it once back when it first came out and it was loaded with adverts, is that still the case?
Is the connection speeds shoddy?

Multilevel marketing meets mobile data service? Pyramid schemes are wildly profitable for their creators, and this one is different enough from Amway and the others to sucker in a whole group of people who really should have learned their lessons by now. Haha, how can I invest in NetZero?

I really despise this recent fascination companies have developed... nickle-and-diming their customers every step of the way.

10 dollars per Gigabyte, 15 dollars for a DLC to unlock a dungeon, 5 dollars to unlock a weapon.

ugh... at this rate these kinds of schemes will slip into every facet of our lives. Can you imagine... go to the bathroom in a restaurant and you gotta swipe your credit card in the toilet paper dispenser? >_

I'd rather just pay a reasonable price for actual amounts of data I use per month. And if I'm "given" a certain amount of data a month on my smartphone plan, I ought to be able to use that data however (as long as I don't exceed it). So what does it matter if I use my 2.5GB/mo on my phone, or if tethered to my tablet or some other computer? It's just data.

LOL, so by the time I download one porn scene from Realitykings it would end up costing data wise, $20 for a 2GB porn file?

Good lord, Im glad I have COX communications. Last month I downloaded over 2 TERAbytes of movies, Yes my hand is very busy. All for $29.99 a month for fast cable internet.

Since when did "data" become so valuable? it's absurd.

Since the consumers demonstrated that they WILL pay for it.

You must have never been to Europe then.
We already have to pay €0.50-1.00 to use many restrooms ^^
