Here in Aus where this all started:(, broadband connections start with a 500MByte cap per month for $50 AUS (about $25 US) from our biggest telco.
It then costs 15cents per MByte thereafter.
With more competition, its changing. We have one or two ISP's which now drop your speed after you reach your limit so you don't pay any more, but it still sucks.
