I guess it's using Kazaa or other Peer-to-Peer file sharing systems that'll eat the bandwidth- though I don't see myself using it particularly heavily (the sound quality isn't that good).

There isn't a cap in the sense that once you reach a certain quota, it automatically cuts you off. The are saying that if you go over a certain amount too often, they reserve the right to ask you to ease off, warn you they will cut you off, and then disconnect you. So far, ntl has yet to enforce the 'cap' on anyone, apparently.
I will leave other people to say exactly how much you have to download, and how often, before you are liable for a telling off, as I don't know ...
