Not anywhere can I find a picture - we need to know whether we should "audition" for the role of superstud!

Come on El Reg - hook us up with a picture and a email address / phone number!

May be worth updating the story with the clocks from there.

Heaviest Virgin Media downloaders face new daytime go-slow

I've just run some numbers and....

I'm on a 2 meg line - yeah my parents wont pay for more!

Now if my maths is right (which it may not be - had a few to drink!) then during the evening i can only download 25.6kBytes/sec in order to avoid reaching the cap. Thats no incentive - i'd rather bang through 450 meg ASAP and get the 5 hour cap on and go on downloading at 100kBytes/sec.

Seems a bit crappy to me that the cap extends outside of the limited hours. If I get home from 8pm and start streaming video - my connection will be capped well into the night. Surely then its better to make sure something downloads while i'm at work so I can get the cap off as soon as possible - after all, getting the cap is inevitable!

Telewest was never this bad - bloody beardy branson.
