Re: Go figure... said by Jerm:Why is it always these Canadian Cable ISPs that trottle? Oh please, it happens in the USA just as much, and it certainly does not happen with every provider in Canada. It's just that...
a) Studies have shown that Canadian users are more tech-savvy and take notice of stuff like this.
b) Canadian users expect top-notch service, and don't consider poor performance 'the norm' and will bitch and moan quite loudly until it is fixed.
c) Canadian users don't live in fear of the MPAA and RIAA sending them a lawsuit to ruin their life, nor do they consider sharing files a 'moral' issue, and therefore are much more open about the way they use P2P programs and how they perform.
c) We know how to voice our concerns in such a way that people take notice.
Anyone who thinks that this isn't happening in the USA is specific to only Canadian is more naive then one would originally assume.
