Too bad Virgin Media Throttle the hell out of users and worst of all, they provide their users details to the Music Industry for anyone that downloads music illegally.

100mb/s for £35 a month

No downstream shaping on 50 and 100mbps connections

How does it affect me?
Customers with Broadband size: 100 (100Mb) – your usage excluding file sharing traffic (see link below) is unaffected.

Customers with Broadband size: XXL (50Mb) – your downstream usage excluding file sharing traffic (see below) remains unaffected and we'll soon be increasing your upload speeds from 1.5Mb to 5Mb. However during peak times we'll need to slow you back to 1.75Mb if your upload usage is particularly high.

I feel otherwise. Ignorance is bliss, but it won't help you discover that we're light-years behind other parts of the world, which is something you should want to know, even if it pains you to know it.
