Re: The fastest UK broadband service...

Oh that's so funny and so ignorant too.

* Everyone except Be Internet does traffic management at the normal price range.

* Torrents on BT are ALWAYS aggressively throttled (go google: "bt infinity torrent performance").

* At 1/2 speed I bet my 50Mbps virgin connection (soon to go up to 120) is still faster than any BT or BT Wholesale based product for torrenting.

* It's only usenet and torrent traffic that's throttled.

Don't get me wrong, the news saddens me, I am just sick of the whining unfair comparison brigade.
