Oddly enough for the first time in my memory we got STM'd the other day - younger brother downloaded TF2 (1.8GB) whilst getting something else.

Even with the STM it was possible for 2 people to play TF2 online, one UO, and all to use various voice comms, the only problem was he had to shut down his background (slowish) uploads...

Even when STM'd there is enough bandwidth for "multitasking", just not downloading at high speeds and time critical things (gaming/voip)).
