I dare say torrents will still be throttled during the day (If they're not 24/7).

As a gamer, I have zero interest in this package. However, these things that start off as a premium are usually a precursor to a wider rollout downstream. Really it started with Homeworks 300 and I've always said I'd happily pay a small premium to remove STM - perhaps in 12-18 months, 10:1 will be standard and upload STM will be a thing of the past. One can hope.
