Awesome News!

This is great news. I wish it applied to news groups though. Thanks to that anonymous poster for sharing this.

You can not max out your speeds on newsgroup downloads with the new speed tiers?

Nope. Unfortunately that max I see on my 10Mbps/1Mbps connection right now in 1.5Mbps. I think if you pay for external news group service then I think you can max out your connection, but I'm not positive.

That is what I was wondering. it isnt uncommon for ISP provided Usenet service to be capped in some form or another.

Insight outsources it's Usenet services to Giganews. They allow up to 6 connections and each one is limited to 256kbps (kilobits per second). This equals to about 1.5mbit in total. I've never hit it, but most users say there is a 30GB/month cap on it also.

This does sound like real good news. I suppose $ makes the world go around to get the fastest speed.
