Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase

Not that I feel in need to explain my usage to anybody... but I'm a sucka for anything HD, and when you are downloading 2 or 3 films or programmes a week at 10gb each, a few DVDs a month, a couple of games a month, couple of lossless/mp3 albums, vent server, general internet crap (videos, browsing, one or two demos a month) it all adds up.

I could cry all day about why I can't buy all of this but whats the point, theres a warezer in all of us, when you are being offered something for free which you want, you usually take it. Morally, nobody cares and legally the law doesn't care, which as long as is the case, neither will I.

After looking at caps with other companies, ntl are semi lenient, the obviously understand that people want free **** but maybe have not grasped the idea that some people want to download huuuuge HDTV files - I guess the caps are all relative to how much you use. Whilst the caps do seem disproportionate to the speeds, anybody who needs more that 300gb is a dirty old sweaty market trader


Lets not forget people as ntl told us, Spiderman was available to download on the tinternet before the cinemas!!! :o
