It is rubbish, to really see how things are, you need live stats and monthly stats.
With that you'll note 10-20% of people get STM'd at any one time rather than the 5% VM shout about.
It has been as high as 40-70% in a few select oversubscribed areas *coughbaguelycough*.
If it was only 5% of the whole customer database at any said time, do you really believe people would see such a hugh speed increase in their connection as soon as STM was rolled out?

However, regardless of whether the 95% figure is actually right if the top 5% of users are using even 40 or 50% of the bandwidth, the people who aren't using that bandwidth are still subsidising them, so my argument stands.

Understandable.
