Fair usage on VM

Just curious how are VM on fair usage? I have done a fresh os install and have just downloaded 150gb of games from Steam in one day, are they going to freak?

Re: Fair usage on VM

I don't know about the 50Mbit package, but the general concensus on these forums in the past is to keep your large downloads after 9pm, to stop them freaking.

Re: Fair usage on VM

Ah that is a relief. I was doing most of the downloads after 12am onwards.

At the moment they don't care, no fair usage or detrimental usage policy at all.
