If you read carefully the article that you quoted part of you will see that I said "Yes, there are companies fighting for market share that are offering unlimited use at the moment, but how long will this last? If all the bandwidth hoggers move to these then it won't be long before they are forced to take action and enforce restrictions. The only alternative for them is to let unlimited downloads slow their network to a crawl." Think about this for a moment. If all NTL users on a specific UBR were to move to the highest tier and tried to max their connections out, what do you think would happen and what do you think NTL should do?
