They are in line with the current guidelines which are 1gb a day, except for people who 1mb (which is why I have the vague notion if I stay on a tariff below 1mb I'll be subject to the same usage restriction) which is 5gb a month. Thats pretty low when you think about if you are downloading hl2 source and the games.

I think what atlis said may be on the money though. If people are actually paying and changing their broadband plans with a cap set in place, its alot more enforceable than when NTL just decided unilaterally to impose 'guidelines'

I hope these caps are guidelines but they do seem rather prominent.
