Nostalgia for uncapped broadband

[DaveBuchanan1337]

I'm feeling it already, in the last 67 minutes of *freedom*, I am about to wrap up my streaming media, and going to go depressed to bed... anyone here have similar sentiments?

i am really depressed, it is like a taste of freedom taken away from you when they throw you back into the pits. maybe it would have been better not to have had no cap? but then again a bit of 1st world service was not too bad, while it lasted.

yeah i thought i'd handle it better but i'm not, it sucks

ADSL is the best option now and I want to be on the best this country offers so I might switch, but i'll stay around in april, but the fact that with ADSL i can now choose uncapped if i so choose and with iBurst its not even an option anymore makes me want to change, which is funny because when this iburst thing started it was so much better than ADSL since it was uncapped and 1mbit and ADSL had no uncapped options, funny how things change.

It was a great ride and its cool they had it uncapped for a while at least but I dont see how I can carry on with it if I can get ADSL. Its just lost its shine for me, oh and another thing, while it was uncapped they could get away with random disconnectiosn and outage and no pop3 but now its a diff monkey

once we get over this cap cadenza, i think we need to start a thread carefully laying out the details and differences of the adsl vs iburst case

even if its been done before, maybe a new formal thread where we can weigh in with all the latest info, in light of the CAPPING.

get over it? are you high? this isn't something they can take away and i'll forget about it in 2 weeks, i demand uncapped service now that i'm used to it, if mr WBS cant give it (even at a price) then mr WBS can lick my mcBalls

Ok that's a good idea, and the results can probably be fed into the next edition of the MyADSL Broadband Ratings Report .

Also, from what I understand the fact that WBS iBurst has a 3GB cap was a big reason why WBS iBurst's rating was lower than Sentech MyWireless in the March edition of the MyADSL Broadband Ratings Report .
