Re: Stupid

I wonder how many are even using the webspace. I've fired up my Comcast personal webspace maybe twice in the 7 years I've had the service. I'm the only person I know who has done this. (and most people I know use Comcast, because the alternative is 768k DSL)

Thanks for that...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but a little bird tells me that roughly 30 minutes of typical quality video averages around 180MB. They must have a beef with smaller files, like mp3. Why not just ban that particular file type?

Draconian and dumb if you ask me. Hopefully their customers leave in droves.

From Exetel's FAQs:
# You have 60 Mbytes capacity for your web space
# Traffic to and from your web space does not count towards your ADSL plan allowances

How big a webspace are they offering? My ISP (Eastlink) has a webspace so small that there's no way you could have any copyrighted materials.

Congratulations Exetel - you are todays ILS (Internet laughing stock)
