Well, I have started using BitTorrent as an alternative to the BBC iPlayer, because the BBC *still* hasn't released an iPlayer P2P client for Mac and their streaming service is a joke.

So, the amount of data I download on my connection has shot up in the past few months. However, I'm on the Virgin.net ADSL service and I've not managed to find any information about what sort of traffic management or shaping they may perform on ADSL. I have therefore voted 'I wouldn't know'.

Does anyone know ... ?
