It's a UK only thing, when in frace i get 100mbit symetric, truely unlimited.
Hell even the old 8mbit ADSL i had in france was really unlimited, download and upload as much as you like.
Let's not get me started on the tokyo 1gbit connection i used for a while 
100+gig/week is not alot of data at all in this day and age, so really you'd kick anyone off who enjoyed watching a few HD tv eps and movies a week? that makes no sense.
And you need to realise heavy users who download constantly dont affect the network all that much, its just a spin VM want you to believe.
Its the p2p users who are constantly uploading that drag the network to its knees. |
I dunno about 100Gb a week not being a lot mate, to me it's stupid amounts of data. In the past few weeks, i think 3 since it started coutning i've used about 35Gb. And i've been watching episodes of tv and all sorts pretty much none stop in spare time. How can i do this in 35Gb and you in, if i recall correctly, TB's?
