Indeed, 10mb 'L' customers could easily fall foul of traffic management when watching HD.
Even though it is excellent I doubt 'L' is really a suitable package for streaming anything other than occasional HD programmes because of traffic management, this is one of the reasons I have always argued it isn't always the case that VM is best option, as ever it all depends what package you are on and your personal usage, and of course what alternatives are available in your area.
XL should be fine for HD though, even with traffic management
