I'll leave my PC running so I can send/recieve similar files, which can be easily a couple of GIG a day.

This is before I use a not-so-well-known-P2P-program, as there is a community on there of like-minded people who share 320kbps mp3 files of thier work, 95% of them are unsigned and it's a fantastic way to promote your music, get instant feedback.

So it is easy to exceed NTL's silly limit, they need sort this out, else they'll suffer in the long run, most people I know on NTL haven't been overly happy with the service in the last 6 months to a year, with the myriad of problems from proxy's to e-mail.

Companies currently offering 2mb lines for £35.49 (that's 49p more than NTL charge you for a 1mb line)

NTL, drop your pricing & increase the limits or you'll lose a lot of customers
So, buy a business connection, this a residetial connection
