thats the way to go.

They were. At one point ntl was going to give everyone 10Mb and charge per useage. Even popped up in the internal staff handbooks, and training was given on how ntl were going to show people how much they had used etc.
Then everyone started focusing back on speed i.e. why did ntl only do up to 10Mb when others do up to 16Mb etc
