From the July 2004 issue of PC World magazine : ISPs are imposing transmission rate caps, limiting how much data customers can download or upload in a fixed time period.

i get my broadband from wanadoo/freeserve. They offered 512k at a reduced price so long as you didnt download more than either 1gb per month, and another offer was for 5gb or something - i cant remember exactly

Anyway i went for the unlimited one, they cant go back on it now!
