So 2 months into the trial: it's had some issues but overall its a "nice to have".
So, Iburst - whats the plan going forward?
Surely by now you have decided? Spill please....

Maybe he knew he was going to resign, so he pushed this out as his last legacy.

Something like Beethoven's last movement?

If I don't receive an update from the product manager on Monday about Midnight to morning, then I'll post his email address here and you can bug him directly.

When is this coming to an end again?

 

[Whiptaka]

When is this coming to an end again?

End of June. I just hope they have it as a VAS by then. It will be pure cruelty if they take it away after 3 months.

Anyone receive an email about this today?

Edit: Reason I ask is because a friend of mine got an email today which said something about the after hours trial ending at the end of this month and the the proper After Hours thing going live next month at no extra cost... I never got any email so maybe someone can clarify for me.

 

[divv]

No I didn't get an email and Monday is almost over so where is that email address please r00igevaar?

 

[isie]

Still nothing recieved?

How about an address and a truckload of brick/tomatoes/rotten eggs?

Just over 3 hours left...

Time's up - answers please - or the email address...

 

[r00igev@@r]

The product spec is done and being signed off. I have requested to be able to disclose it or the tomatoes and rotten eggs will be thrown.

The future of Midnight to morning

The rotten eggs and tomatoes did not work. Finally, I threatened to deny Bubbles his banannas and received an answer!

The service will be available in two forms: precap and postcap. Firstly, this will be automatically available precap as a standard package feature with no opt-in required. The terms are that it can be used for free on the high end packages and not at all on the low end packages. For the packages in between it can be used at a variable usage discount.

Secondly, the Midnight to morning service will be incorporated into the Uncapped Anytime postcap VAS. The current cost of that VAS will remain the same. The Uncapped Anytime VAS will be rate limited to either 64kb/s or 128kb/s during the day and at night between midnight and 8am it will be unthrottled.
