I would think it meant a month 1TB a day does seem very extreme if I download constantly for a whole day I CAN do just about 600GB and yes I have done this a couple of times in the last 3 years although couldnt get this much when I was on 10/40.

Hmm.. to be honest, not looked at BT's packages since I left them; but looking at those new packages with no limits.. if they were available round here I'd be tempted to move back.
For basically £5 more than Origin's Max package.. I could get pretty much the same service, plus unlimited telephone & Unlimted TV package, with a brand new Youview box, and a £100 M&S voucher to sweeten the Mrs...

It's a no brainer really, in the face of that.. once BT do start epxanding their coverage I can't see how any SYDR ISP could even remotely begin to compete.

Alas, not likely to see them round here anytime soon...

And you get 50GB free Cloud Storage - but totally agree unless the ISP's on digital region start bringing prices down, they network will lose out to the bigger companies who can provide the same or more for a cheaper price..

And as you say it's a no-brainer to get the full package from BT for the cost -I have the whole package with multi-room (currently not officially supported but it works) as have 2 youview boxes.

Also with BT and other providers you can manage your account online, which is something that AFAIK is still not possible with the ISP's on Digital Region.

And I can't wait for BT to add the linear channels to their Youview Line-Up later in the year
