The fact they will pay more for this means they are not average users if you compare them with someone doing occasional browsing on 150k!

Let me straighten a few things up
1 I am not from FACT or the BPI, but I can see where they are coming from
2 The average user's are the majority, there ain't that many that exceed the limit, but the few that do seem to make the most noise.
3 The content does make a differance, everyone knows, people downloading that amount of data are downloading pirated software and films. NTL can not be seen to condone it.
