Chrysalis, AFAIK I have never accused all heavy users of piracy so please don't say that I have unless you can point me to a post where I have. The truth of the matter though is that most heavy users use their connection in contravention of their ISPs AUP and I don't think anyone could argue with that. Any user can judge the use of others if that use has the potential to affect their own use.

What I have just done is to make clear the fact that all ISPs have conditions which prohibit certain types of use and not just NTL. Many of the people who have complained about caps have admitted what they use their connection for and would be in breach of every ISPs conditions whether the ISP is capped or uncapped.

Over the past couple of years I have heard every reason under the sun that you can use any broadband speed to its full potential 24/7 without breach of any legal obligation. Whilst theoretically it may be possible, practically I would think that you would be hard pushed to make up a couple of football teams from the prople in this country who actually do. Read carefully what I have just said before commenting on this.
