[Repetition]

There are conflicting facts/rumours from "official sources" in this thread. While they LOOK very similar, they're actually distinctly different. Firstly there's:

750K will become 2Mb, for £24.99 per month, with a 1GB per day usage download limit (200K upload speed)
1.5Mb will become 3Mb, for £37.99 per month, with a 1GB per day usage download limit (300K upload speed)

Then there's:

750K will become 2Mb, for £24.99 per month, with a 30GB per month usage download limit (200K upload speed)
1.5Mb will become 3Mb, for £37.99 per month, with a 30GB per month usage download limit (300K upload speed)

If the aim is to cap "heavy" downloaders then the latter seems like the sensible way to achieve that end. The former, on the other hand, will likely oft single out "lite" users for special persecution.

E.G. - people who rarely download or limit their downloading sessions to the weekends might exceed the 1GB per day limit a handful of times during a given month and end up severely punished when their monthly downloading total is less (even considerably less) than 10GB.

Meanwhile, the canny "heavy" user could download 995Mb per day.... accumulating a VERY near 30GB per month downloading total.. with impunity.

For me, the distinction between 1GB per day and 30GB per month is an important one. If NTL plan on enforcing the former I'd likely soon be looking elsewhere for another provider.... whereas I don't think I've EVER, even nearly, downloaded 30GB in a month.

Ironic indeed that by enforcing a 1GB per day cap... NTL could potentially retain the "heavy" users they want to curb... while "lite" users and "weekenders" flee for greener pastures.
