all companies over subscribe, no ISP could supply 20mbit of bandwidth for a 2 digit sum per month. when you get a dedicated server with a 100mbit port, that isn't guarenteed either!

if people didnt download a lot, the 'oversubscription' wouldn't be a problem so it is in fact heavy downloaders causing the problems.

next time you're in a traffic jam, do you complain at your council and ask for a reduction in car tax due to oversubscribing the roads?
