i was not looking for sympathy, i accept that it is my fault and can live with 512kpbs. and yes i still do think it's a bit harsh, if only for the fact i know at least 2 people, one of them my brother in law who downloads far more than i ever have and has received no warning letter at all, now that is unfair imo.
if truth be told this could not have come at a better time, i am struggling financially and this is probably best for me, and i suppose all the other ubr users whose lives have been totally destroyed by my downloading.
