Why else would a home user need *that* much bandwidth?
Come on, tell me I am *really* interested to know just *what* you all fill your raid arrays with?

Using the newsgroups as an example I could download...
west wing vcd series 5 tv rip 15gb
smallville series 4 tv rip 9gb
I can then download suse linux...
suse 9.3 4gb
Maybe I want to buy half life 2 and download it via steam...
half life 2 from steam 4gb
So in total 32gb without any warez or dvd rips in site and there's plenty more where that came from on the newsgroups. If you maxed out the current 3mb connection you could probably do that in a day, on a 10mb connection it would take about 8 hours.

Has anyone any proof of ntl contacting the so-called heavy downloaders and wagging a finger at them
If other people's online activities aren't affecting your connection, then why should it bother you how they use their connection for
