I believe the Ofcom definition of broadband (although I'd have to dig to be sure) is that only 512kbps is necessary to be classed as broadband.

Doesn't change that VM are (IMO) throttling to "encourage" people to upgrade for downloaded capacity rather than immediately bandwidth. TBH I think it's the only way the BB industry can go but I just wish that someone would be more open about it.
