and as for the ludicrous 'i have no proof that it hurts the network', you really need to rethink that...
Go look at contention, the cost of bandwidth, maximum throughputs of all the equipment on ntl;s network. Go look at the total amount of bandwidth at telehouse or telecity. The look at the amount of people taking bandwidth from it all. Then come back to me and tell me how people downloading masses of content does not affect other users.
I am not compelled to fight any corner apart from my own; any from where i am sitting it seems that greedy a***holes who just want to download everything available to them are ruining the service that i pay ntl for.

Since when have you been privy to the internals of NTL's network.
And just one other point while your in cloud cuckoo land. I pay for my service as well. I will ask you again what are you going to do with those that are downloading 24/7 from sky movies for instance which is legal. Come on you know NTL's network how much will that damage it.
I download for 3 hours a night after midnight are you honestly saying that affects you.
