Default I continue to love my Verizon plan...
Just bought, and downloaded the low res version of Thor: The Dark World on iTunes. 1.9 GB. Entire movie downloaded in 11 minutes. No limits in sight.

On the flip side, I paid to upgrade GWiz's "unlimited" hotspot on Verizon, and she's used nearly all of it with half a month to go. 20 GB hotspot (up from 15), but 75 GB total. Yeah...what the **** is she going to do on her phone's UI to use 75 GB? I truly wish I could get my plan for her too.

104 GB in May, June will be similar. July will be similar too.

I pay the same premium for her plan as I do mine.

Had 5 people tethered off of my phone today in our all day sprint planning meeting because corporate wi-fi is shoddy in that corner of the building. Still saw speeds of 40 mb/s down.

If I was the NSA I’d be giving out free unlimited data plans and hotspots to lots of people.

They don't have to give it away, they are already tapped into all of them.

So you're the reason I have to pay $150+/mo for 8GB.
