Mbps vs MBps

Today at work there was an arguement about why bandwidth was measured in bits and not bytes. I suggested that it was measured in bits because each electrical signal sent over a cable is either a 1 or a 0, hence being measured in bits. My coworker suggested that its a clever marketing scheme to make data rates seem faster. What are your opinions on this?
