Probably not. People being able to skip the commercials alone would prevent them from ever considering it, not to mention drawing attention the technology where people could start downloading non-official torrents. Even if they didn't care, the advertisers would probably back out in a heartbeat.
Not only is it a valid point people are making that there's no reason to limit the data if the average person doesn't use that much as the company is claiming, but according to that logic, they're turning down free money. When they use this excuse to not have unlimited data, all I hear is "We could offer this service people are willing to pay us for without the costs of them actually using said service but we prefer to turn away free money." An abundance of people utilizing unlimited data would be a much better argument for them to be rid of it.

Sounds familiar.
"You know how you can tell when a company is really in trouble? When it focuses on legal attacks on others, rather than driving its own innovation."
Apple? Is that you?
