But because it has no fixed data allowance, we do manage all the traffic on it to optimise the experience for everyone on the plan. When the network is busy (generally inside the hours of 9am and 2am) you may notice reduced speeds, in particular you are likely to see reduced speeds in relation to file sharing traffic.

That's the best I could find. It's nice when they don't say everything. (I couldn't find the actual T&C that say anything at all about this.

I had a Premium Account for a few days, ended up actually being slower to download with the Premium Account than without it. I told my mate next time he wanted to post some music he's made with fruity loops or whatever online to get me to host it instead of Rapidshare :p
