I just love how corporations lie, don't you?
Makes me wonder who is the biggest liars, Corporations, Governments, or do most people just lie and then say they misspoke....I guess they were under fire too...Is misspoke even a word?
If you pay for unlimited service that's what you should get.
NERO uses Bit Torrent to disperse its program

Road Builders are responseable for drivers who drive to fast? Isn't it police work? Road Builders are responseable for drivers who kill anyone while driving drunk? Isn't it police work? ISP:s are responseable for customers what customers are downloading? When did ISP:s get the status of police enforcement? ISP provide a service and nothing else and if my ISP get me throtled in any protocol or use, without any legal notice well I sued them really bad. Sorry for my attitude but I just get really upset when ever I read about such junk as this. PC World should be on customers side not on ISP or Warner, Sony or any other company that gets around fundamental rights thanks to big bucks. Or are PC World also on they payroll? Why am i saying this? Well instead of educating your paying customers how to get around ISP that is blocking torrents why don't you look, what rights ISP have to do that. And not only by ISP company rule but, rather on constitutionaly rights for free information.

Nice try at the ol' strawman game, Mr. Spring, but the issue isn't whether BitTorrent users are downloading copyrighted content -- it's their impact on the overall network and all the users who aren't greedy infantile narcissists. You don't care who suffers as long as you get your fix, do you, Mr. Spring?

Bandwidth cap: exceed it, pay a published rate per MB. best solution. people want lots of HD movies? they can pay for it. It's like buying minutes in the cel world (and yes before all you attack nutters jump, it's only similar, not exact). ISPs want business models to balance equipment costs? users pay for it. But let's be clear about what is being bought and sold. No clarity, shame on everyone.

Pay for unlimited access, you better be geting unlimited access. Anything else is a violation of your contract: contact the BBB and your lawyer.

If you let your ISP implement the law (by assuming you are using your internet connection for illegal use), then you can take them to court. Do it or change your ISP. At least ISPs are no longer saying it's because users are unfairly taking bandwidth. That's a load of "misdirection".

Unlimited access is unlimited access. Period. Maybee you side with the ISP's because you are one of them.

I called charter last night they told me they don't do that. I said how come when I change my incoming ports it works for a few days?? I can't belive they hung up on me.

If you are paying for a 10Mbps download speed, you should get a 10Mbps download speed no matter what programs you use. If your ISP wants to slow down your service because you're using BitTorrent (or any other P2P network), it should be stated up front in the ISP's Terms of Service (TOS), otherwise, it seems to me that they are ignoring their own TOS, and are essentially breaking the law by fraudulently and deliberately slowing down your service. Wouldn't it be better for them to be up-front about this instead of this cloak and dagger crap that they hide behind, lying to customers? If their TOS clearly stated that P2P networking programs would be subject to slower upload and download speeds, or that there would be extra charges for users who upload and/or download more than X GB of data in any given month, then customers who use these services would either have to agree to the ISP's TOS, or find an ISP which doesn't regulate the amount of bandwidth that they use. I personally don't use BitTorrent (or any other P2P network), but I do feel strongly that ISPs need to be honest with their customers instead of cloaking their poor service in a copyright issue.
