Because there are companies which dosn't add 200ms to your ping when you download a 4Mb file in peak time.

No, that'd be creating a network with a reasonable amount of network bandwidth, and not overselling (If that means you have to offer a slower service, SO BE IT!). Oh, and kicking the 24/7 download abusers off. This is a viable alternative, afaik. I'm sure you won't like it...but it is an alternative.

The "reach for speed" in British broadband, when you cannot then use that speed, is self-destructive to the industry. Certain press from VM criticising caps on other services, when they restrict their own network in other ways, are also downright wrong as far as I'm concerned and I've complained about them as misleading.
