Plusnet I did look at when going to FTTC.

They still do traffic shape and that wont change with this new package, they dont just shape p2p, they also shape streaming, ftp etc. However they do have cheap static ip's and also have a pro package which I believe removes all rate limiting so nothing is hard capped (but doesnt remove the prioritisation system).

They look potentially a nice choice of an isp but I didnt go with them because every so often they hit a crisis where they critically short of capacity and that put me off. But these events are much less frequent than they used to be.

The usage limit didnt put me off as its still unlimited off peak and the peak limit is actually probably still enough for me.
