Just curious why you don’t get unlimited data transfer if you’re paying A LOT more for a dedicated server or virtual private server.

shared hosting providers usually have their servers on an unmetered line, which will be shared among their many clients. You could get an unmetered line for your dedicated/VPS, but it would cost you a real lot.
there is no such thing as unlimited bandwidth and unlimited space. Even my host (Chime Host), they offer unlimited option but they are clear on their site that clients are not allowed to use excessive cpu resources or cause heavy load on the server. Therefore, you will never reach that stage where you get to use tons of space and tons of bandwidth on a shared hosting environment. If you start using tons of bandwidth/space on a package that cost only $4.95 per month, chances are you will cause heavy load on the server. The second you reach that stage, your account will be suspended and you will be asked to move to vps or dedicated server.
It can be because of, Dedicated server hosting providers provide monitoring, software updates, reboots, security patches… one of my friend is using virtual server from http://www.onthenetoffice.com/ ..you can check.
The term to describe this is called overselling… You can read up on this on one of Google’s Knols: http://knol.google.com/k/jonathan-burdon/web-hosting/1p36hfxlyxfh8/2#
Most people think they need dedicated web hosting; however, in reality shared web hosting offers more than enough server resources for the average website. Some of the best shared web hosting site are featured on http://www.alreadyhosting.com .
Hope this helps.
That’s mainly because shared providers can get away with it since they have a tight grib on your usage. VPS or dedicated not so easily because they don’t have a way of “policing” your “unlimited” usage.
