The only problem with looking at features strictly from a bandwidth perspective is that it ignores the actual work involved for creating them. There are a lot of features that could benefit the users and the site, that wouldn't impact bandwidth but would use hundreds of hours of design and build time. Perhaps the more miserly members here don't remember what the SI feature set was really like at the actual time of grandfathering and how much it's changed since then. What was that, late 97/early 98?

"what is the least arbitrary way to differentiate a standard from a premium service? My answer to that is to determine what features require processing and/or bandwidth requirements above and beyond the norm."
