| 284607 | 2004-10-26 06:29:00 | Sorry barmypom, I couldn't find Gordons' post. But as Graham L said it was sold: > "Unlimited, subject to reasonable use" The word "unreasonable" is a bit prickly, but as the owner of the service they're the ones who get to decide what "unreasonable" means, personally I agree that 20gb per month is unusal. As usual we all get to vote with our wallets. I also think that the pig who ate all the pasta spoiled it for everone else. |

| 284609 | 2004-10-26 07:02:00 | Try streaming radio,or consider the amount of traffic keen photographers generate,online gaming,all the legal downloads at megagames.com or gamershell.com,or programs at download.com,plus all the media rich websites that have streaming video and audio,Linix downloads, or swapping home video,windows updates,game patches and mods.... Hardly leaves any time to download that 10 pack of Pantera albums.... |

Streaming video/radio online so one can watch tv programs and listen to live broadcast from other countries. Video conferencing with friends and relatives. With digital camera having higher and higher pixels, a photo with good quality can be around 10MB to 20MB uncompressed. So .. what is 20GB these days? You can't even buy a 20GB hdd now. |

But you know what people are like and the owner of the pasta shop should have been prepared. Now, instead, it's him (or in this case Woosh) taking the flak and alot of customers disapointed and wondering what they've done wrong. They need to be a bit more specific than 'subject to reasonable use'. It's not a hard ask. Telecom manage to do it ok by specifically stating the cap (and if they can do it, I'm sure anyone else can). |
