Still waiting on my upgrade (West Mids and we're at the bottom of the list  ) but would honestly prefer more upload than the additional download we keep being given.
I haven't noticed any speed issues - perhaps that's because we've not been upgraded yet, or mebbe the people in my immediate area don't abuse it
I have a problem with paying for a service then being told I can only use part of it - which to me is what capping is about. You don't buy a car and then get told you can only drive xx miles a day/month (then again, I have a serious problem with the proposals for road pricing - which is prolly on another topic somewhere).
There is only so much people will want to download, they will just get the information quicker.

Blueyonder giving you more upload speed would create more problems for themselves and their customers unless they invest more in their network which they will not do with the merger being just around the corner.
You are paying for a service which has conditions applied to it in order to give it at the price you pay. There have to be restrictions on use to make the service profitable for the provider, they are a business after all and not a charity.
Some people download just for the sake of it because they can. I would bet that only a small fraction of what is downloaded by some people is actually used by them after it is downloaded.
