Just the same with NTL.
If ntl complain about network congestion then they must take some responsibility, as they have given us the tools to do so.
I have heard many times the old metaphor of " It's like giving you a car that you can drive 300mph in, but only letting you drive to the end of the street".
Those bigwigs at ntl know exactly what they are doing, they aren't in this to be overly concerned over what people are downloading or how much- at the end of the day they are in it primarily make money out of us. If their system didn't work then they would have no custom and no money.

Precisely this was a carefully thought out plan by NTL. If samuel had been kind enough to actually read my posts carefully he would of realised YES i blame my self for the downloading/uploading i do but ultimately NTL knew what amount users were downloading and they decided to take new customers over old ones...
