Virgin pilots 200Mbps broadband

[Implement]

I'm on 20MB at the moment, 50MB is not available in my area, besides, there is no chance I would be paying the £50 p/month that they are asking for.

I suppose, this will be good. I belive, companys are going to stream games if this goes ahead apparently.

Virgin doesn't have stupid download limits, if anything I think it's one of the best.. the limits like 2gb during 4 -9 and 10 - 3 is a bit low, but still 4gb per day is a lot more than some ISP limits such as 50gb p/m. After 9 there is no limits which I thinks good..

Yeah I was never reaching those limits during the day thankfully although I never got capped when downloading them or sometime even over. Although on their 50MB now which so far isn't capped which is immense. Extremely fast downloads. No capping. No monthly limits. I couldn't ask for much more.

4GB a day is not much to be perfectly honest.

you would be able to download films in a matter of minutes :S
i have 2mb and i download an average 1gb film from vuze in about 1-2 hours
2mb x 100 = 200mb
2 hours / 100 = 1.2 minutes lol :S

that's the whole point lol.

Well over 20 days its 80gb, Skys medium package is 40gb p/m. You have double that in under a month.. it's brilliant imho.

I just do all my downloading after 9.. it's not that hard.

Virgin Media don't really clamp you down unless you downloads a silly amount a day or a month.

I think it was last month I downloaded about 80GB in 1 week and I'm on o2 Access (8MB) and I was not capped or throttled.
