Not a problem, in itself, but don't underestimate the casual user - there is no reason why they cannot be educated to get the most from their connection - and queuing downloads outside of STM time slots is part of that, imo

It's not a matter of educating them, it's a matter of why should they have to?
They are paying for a high speed connection, they should be allowed to use it when they need it, not when they are in bed.
What use is it when your asleep? you cant game/play demos/watch iplayer while your asleep can you? are you superhuman?
So basically your saying customers should pay £37 for that high speed connection so they can use it when they are in bed, you should work for VM, you'd make a great manager, neil has the same views, sell them something, just dont let them use it.
