Yes, at uni downloads from 0:00 to 8:00 used to be a fraction of the price some years back, and everyone got provided with a fixed sum of internet money for the whole year. I never paid extra, because I made a script which would look in a certain directory during the night, and treat all files in there as containing URLs to download. The jobs were finished the next morning. The script is geturls in my scriptutils package.
