Unlimited is unsustainable, for any ISP especially if P2P is involved.

It's like motorways. Make them bigger, they just fill up again and sooner rather than later it's congested again and they start talking about charging for usage.




A year from now, 10Mbps will seem pathetic and people will be demanding 100Mbps, and still everyone will be moaning about caps, traffic shaping, etc ...


... but at the end of the day 90% of them will be spending 90% of the time just browsing low bandwidth web sites . It's funny how many people complain about "unlimited" and "caps", but don't actually have a use for that much bandwidth
