When I ran an ISP in the 1990s some customers used to think that my net connection was free, and the revenue from their monthly payments was pure profit. At the time I was paying around $USD95 per gigabyte inbound, or an effective rate of $30400 per Mbit per month. (Yes, that's THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS). Of course I didn't even have 1 megabit of bw back then... and the $95 per gig didn't include link costs either. My net profit would have been <5% of rev.
