It is legitimately worrying that they throttle non-streaming video downloads and streaming of services which aren't part of BingeOn. There are several cloud storage solutions which stream the video as it was uploaded (i.e. if it was 1080p when uploaded, they only stream is back at 1080p), so this scenario will be absolutely destroyed by BingeOn, making the video unwatchable, plus any kind of download for offline viewing.
I'm tempted to disable BingeOn after this. I mostly watch YouTube anyway which isn't even included, but will be limited by this "feature."
