Not a bad analogy at all.

However speed during on or off peak periods isn't the only issue here and people stuck in a mindset about traffic management and shaping should be mindful that, extending the discussion beyond ISP applied limitations in relation to bandwidth usage, nobody should whine / be surprised when they get disconnected or / and fined for breaking the law in relation to copyright infringement when they know they're breaking the law.
