Just wondering as you seem to know your stuff and your passionate about it.

I suppose it comes down to what your opinion on the subject is. I think that people not having a problem with this is crazy

Again it's all about opinion. There will be hundreds of thousands of Virgin broadband who never suffer capping. For me personally it was a problem when I had Virgin broadband. I wasn't happy with the speeds I was getting through the day, due to my usage of the service, in reflection to what I was paying.

It's a good point I can't argue with.

Again it's all about personal opinion. When I was having financial issues I moved from 100mb to 30mb for a short period. The download limits and speed restrictions for me where a problem and difficult to get used to. I suppose coming down from 100mb might have exaggerated my perception of the issue.
When it comes right down to it each and every customer will decide what is right for them. What I view as a problem, others might find acceptable and visa versa.
