I like the speed increase however having to pay £25 to get it seems unfair, also the cap levels are really low.
Any change to the upstream? I would imagine 3Mb could do with a higher upstream to effectivly support the increased ACK packets.

Am sure I remember saying like a year or two ago that the download all you want train of thought was an endangered one.

40GB is extremely low?
You'd love Cogeco.ca, 10Mbit/1Mbit, only 30GB/month total transfer limit. A mere 6 full length DVDs.
Last I checked contention on BT's Office products was 20:1. 20:1 share of a 2Mbit circuit is ~30GB, 20:1 of 3Mbit is 45. Hardly mean doing a 20 - 25:1 contention and it's well above what vast majority use.
3Mbit doesn't require anywhere near 256kbit of upstream to support ACKs generated, 256kbit is good for 10Mbit or more, depending on number of sources for a download that are being used simultaneously.
