Course it does, so long as you ignore that AUP change happened well over a year ago and only now are AOL advertising their unlimited service.

You really paid no attention to the rest of what I said regarding AOL users being traditionally relatively light users as most leech meisters take other packages from other ISPs, due in part to AOL's reputation.

You have no idea how hard ntl are working to make sure the speed increase goes smoothly and well, how much is being spent installing extra capacity, and how much extra capacity is going in.

I'd suggest you sort those facts out before making a sweeping statement with no basis at all in fact. NTL own the NTL network, AOL use it as it gives access to extra subscribers and new markets, end of story. Your so-called proof holds as much water as an overstretched sieve.

Don't suppose you're going to accuse BT of 'capping' their BTBroadband users at 1GB/day to make room for Zen, Eclipse, Plusnet, Nildram, and indeed AOL to offer unlimited packages are you? No? Then kindly think before making those statements, I have less and less time for rants like this as I spend more time working and less at home, therefore less time to spend on forums like this answering requests for help rather than debunking those for whom the service will never ever be right and a hole must be found somewhere, even if it takes the most monumental leap of imagination.
