Download limits on Broadband

I've it on good authority people in the USA get unlimited downloads/uploads (no surplus charges/shaping) with their plans for under 50USD.

Begs the question .... why is it that upload/download limits are applied here in Australia ?

Anyone here been caught out by exceeding their download / upload limits ? what happened ?

(I have a monthly limit of 29GB and I exceeded it this month, I've had my ADSL service shaped (is woefully slow right now .... so not worth while downloading large files until next month, I have heard horror stories of people getting monthly bills of thousands of $ when they exceeded their broadband monthly up/download limits.)
