Unlimited and unshaped -- you're dreaming. 

I think ADSL2+ is cheaper than ADSL because the ISPs opt to install their own 
DSLAM on top of Telstra stuff.

They are very uncompetitive plans. I don't know how they can do business at 
those rates. Must be some guy doing it as a hobby.

The mainstream ISPs I'm aware of are TPG, Telstra Bigpond, Optus Cable and 
iinet.

IMO stick with mainstream. They're cheaper.

I use TPG ADSL2+. 

I'm about 5-8 kms from a DSLAM, so I get about 2 mbits out of the theoretical 
20 mbit speed.

For $59.99 you get 50 gigs (30 gb peak, 20 gb offpeak). No game servers, no 
mirrors. Shaped to 64 kbits.

For $69.99 you get 150 gigs (40 gb peak, 110 gb offpeak). 

I'm on an old plan ($59.99, 30 gb, shaped 128 kbits). I prefer staying on this 
as I need faster shaped speeds. And all my internet usage is during peak hours 
anyway.
