The saga continues courtesy of the Reg. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/04/09/bbc_tiscali_iplayer/ (BBC vs ISPs: Bandwidth row escalates as Tiscali wades in) ISPs seem to be upset by the idea they should provide customers with what they pay for! If I buy an Unlimited plan from an ISP why shouldn't I connect my machine and transfer data full speed for the entire month? (Which technically still isn't unlimited because I am capped by the fact that I can't transmit at an infinite speed). ISPs exploit customers ignorance to make money. As I stated earlier the average man in the street has no idea what "8 GB a Month" actually means. Maybe we should just re-nationalise the communications infrastructure?
