OnLive already have a deal going with BT until the end of the year, probably an exclusive one.

I'll test it. Given how long Onlive has been live for in the US and that BT are able to not shape it you'd hope that VM will be fine, however the problems with the management of the application management hardware have been well documented.

Baseline taken, I'll check it again when the shaping is off and compare.
Confirmed not a lot of upload used. in a 90 min gaming session i read 3.38 gig downloaded but only 69mb uploaded.
