Bandwidth usage

Hello,

Please help me clarify something. I read from the help resource files that...

"Bandwidth counts against the usage of the file owner, regardless of whether the owner creates the shared link."

If I understand this correctly, when a person sends a file to a shared folder in my Box account, the bandwidth limit will be that of their account instead of mine. This means that, if they have a free account, the limit will be 10GB per month. Is that correct?

If I am right, then it is not very useful for someone who might have a business account with a higher bandwidth limit and ask their clients to create free accounts to share files. It would be much better if the bandwidth used by a client uploading to a shared folder in my account would be counted against my account, not the account of my client.

Thanks.
