Re: 1GB Cap Letter!!!!

Does it really matter what people are using there connection for? The same argument of you must be a warez monkey to abuse your connection - if all people want to do is check the web, check email and download the odd thing - they why would they pay for 1 mbit line at soon to be £37.99? ?

So for example lets say we have a 8mbit line made by NTL - then surely the power users or whatever you call them would pay the going rate for that? Leased line prices are a joke to be honest - dont get my wrong - i would love to be able to afford a leased line - then having 2mbit both ways would be great - definalty no limitations apply on this.

People are a bit stuck for choice really - they either buy a contented connection (ADSL, Cable modem) for the affordable price per month or go and re-mortgage there house for a BT Leased Line.

I want a connection that i can use how i want - i dont mind paying extra if i get extra- i would prefer a 1-1 connection with full upload speed but at a price i can afford - BT Keep the prices really high - so thats out the question.

NTL had a trail some time back where they did wire Fibre to some flats in london - this gave the lucky sods 155mbit connection (both ways) for £24 a month - though that never lasted - it shows you what can be achived.
