A Majority of the world uses MB for Megabyte and Mb for Megabit.. Anyone who does not is a uppercrusty snob who doesn't care for conventions and is ultimately trying to confuse people and be official.. Standardization organizations tend to suck because they suffer from analysis paralysis. Take for instance the OMG standards organizations who failed to standardize CORBA interfaces due to an lack fo agreement among commercial developers, I was once told getting commercial competitors to agree on a standard is like herding cats. The two ways of standarizing terminology: intuition or use. People are not going to adopt terminology from a standards body which doesn't adopt intuition or use as a method of adopting terminology. Like if a standards body was to use "SuperChomp" instead of "MegaByte", there would have to be a good intuitive reason for someone to use that name instead of MegaByte..
