CenturyLink plans to join Comcast in testing a billing system that charges broadband customers based on how much data they consume.
CenturyLink Chief Financial Officer Stewart Ewing said during an earnings call that the company expects to run trials of pay-per-byte billing later this year. "Regarding the metered data plans -- we are considering that for second half of the year," he said. "We think it is important and our competition is using the metered plans today."
