Netflix and uncapped ISP

[Acid0]

Hi there

I will be upgrading my line from 2mb to 4mb next month as I want to start using netflix in the house.
I am currently on Telkom 2mb uncapped.

I see Mweb is cheaper with their 4mb uncapped + data line.

My question is though , is it better to go i=on the business uncapped or stay on the normal uncapped from Mweb?

Is there a difference between premium and normal uncapped.

Regards.

The only difference between Premium and Standard is the rolling 30 day data threshold before you will be shaped to ****. I believe the thresholds are 110GB for Standard and 400GB for Premium on the 4Meg package.

I myself have the 6Meg Standard and I am very happy with the streaming from various providers, day or night.

Does anybody use XBMC for viewing netflix.
I don't want to purchase a top box yet before I try it out to see if I can successfully stream without buffering.

I currently running a Micro server with XBMC as my media center.

Normal uncapped will be fine. Premium is just a higher throttling threshold.

2meg is fine for 1 DVD quality stream.

4Meg for if you want to watch more than one stream at once.
