It’s a cable connection and there isn’t a single cable provider which doesn’t use traffic shaping. I already made the choice between 120 mbit/s DOCSIS3 and 20 mbit DSL here and no way I’m getting a heavily traffic shaped cable connection, no matter what the speed is. But I’m sure some people will like it, if only for being able to get 100 mbit at speedtests to show off. Because for some reason the providers never shape those connections ;).

However, even in NJ where franchise law allows it, I don’t think Cablevision is likely to overbuild Comcast or TWC.

They still have to deal with local franchise regs, don’t they?
