    broadband download limits?

    do you think a 15gig limit is too small? or will it be enough for your everyday broadband usage d/ling music etc?

    It is pretty easy to dl 15GB in a month if you hammer it, but you would have to have a music, film video game and porn addiction to do that every month!

    only a few quid tho.

    its the principle as well - why pay for broadband, which offeres these amazing speeds etc etc...when u can only download so much?

    It's only worth it if you are going to be hammering the downloads really, otherwise theres no point!

    30 gig a month is loads really.

    You could always get AOL, £29.99, 1mbit and no limit.

    I can use 3 gig per day on mine, don't bother going with a limited connection.

    exactly - the reason most ppl get broadband is so they can download shit off th net.

    no good watching what u download cos u may hit ya limit.

    also - doesnt mean cos u aint sat at ya pc all day u aint downloading...remember that :up:
