 But no there aren't. People who "need" to download 2GB per day are either doing something illegal, or need a business connection (or both).

When did I say I need to? I want to. I don't *need* the internet, or even a computer, or a car, or a TV.. but I have them all because I want them. Anyone who thinks 2gig a day is a lot is having a laugh basically. Christ you can download that in an hour or two with the new speeds if you wanted.

That's true, but if your "use" of your internet connection is affecting others in your area, then it is ntl's business.

I don't disagree, but it would make more sense to allow (as at least one other ISP does) unlimited OFF-PEAK use, where the network load is far lower. By all means have a cap during peak times. Having a cap for the whole day makes no sense.

 Your posts here clearly show your ignorance regarding me/us/this site, I suggest you do a little more research before you make sweeping statements like that.

So, please don't make sweeping comments about me or my site members (lack of) knowledge of the internet, when most have been using it far longer than maybe you yourself have.

I am not a regular here, that doesn't mean I'm new to the internet or wet behind the ears. I post on lots of forums and this is obviously not my main haunt. If someone doesn't know what they're talking about, having more posts than me or having joined before me doesn't alter that basic fact.
