This is not unlimited internet by a longshot its a restrictive version of what they once had as unlimited.

I've yet to hear of anyone exceeding the STM thresholds by playing a game. And I'd guess that most games would work okay if played while under STM.
Could you not download a 5GB HD movie from Live overnight to watch the next day?
I feel your frustration but the only thing that VM are limiting is your connection *speed* -- the amount you download is not limited. You may not feel there's much difference but the ASA think otherwise.
