it take you 2-3 days to do 250gb so not really an good limit

on 10mb service it is an little low
on 20mb service it be better if it was 5gb as it only take an 75% of an dvd size file to get STM or 20 mins if you can download at full speed for that time
if your on 20mb doing 3.4gb per day for norm use (upto 9pm any way) mite be high but as i sayed above 5gb be better for that service and up the 10mb one

going to nag at virgin next week as there is way to much packet loss on the 50mb service, on the 20mb one there there was no packet loss unless i was taxing my upload or trying to crash my router (2000 connections test p2p)
