Thins are going to be changing in the next few months (at least with
Free Online, and possibly / probably with most /all other ISPs) in so
far as BT are changing the way they charge ISPs for their bandwidth.


Yes, all bandwidths are charged at pretty well the same rate, so if you
can get 2MB/s you might as well have it....some ISPs will charge more
though.

They are also changing the costs for data volume (which may be what
Chris meant) so caps, limits and volume charging will become common
except among ISPs with a customer base such as AOL's, where the majority
of their customers are low data users and will effectively subsidise the
heavy users.

OTOH, who wants to use AOL! !
