A bit is either 0 or 1 (can represent 2 possible values). A byte is 8 bits (can represent 2**8 possible values, or 0 to 255). Usually a KiB is 2^10 bytes, and a MiB is 2^10 KiB and so on. People sometimes use KB/MB/GB/TB to mean MiB/KiB/etc which are powers of ten approximations (10^3 and so on). I blame idiotic marketing done by some companies for this - they want you to think their drives have higher capacity than they do by inventing new terms, this started with floppies and continued from then on.

Yet, for most of them. Apparently, Velox has been wanting to implement that for a little over a year now, but whenever it gets close to the date they say they're going to start it, it gets pushed away a bit. At the moment, they say their quota service is going to kick in starting June or so.
