This is a nice, concise explanation of how the move towards data caps in US internet service plans makes digital distribution (for instance, games) much more difficult than it should be. Steam a few HD movies and download a few games, and you could hit the "large" 300 GB cap Comcast has pretty fast.

The app makes ordering a pizza pretty much like yelling at your parents to make you one when you were 10. Just pause your Halo 3 game and use voice commands or the motion-sensing Kinect to compose and confirm your order. You’ll only have to put your controller down when the delivery guy arrives.
