If 99% of my online experience is downloading, and they are disrupting the connections for the downloads....exactly how does that improve my expirence?
From what I've seen in Tulsa, downloads aren't impacted much, at least for BitTorrent. Just don't try seeding.

Thats useful...no seeding and most torrents will cut you off pretty damned quick!

Yeah I saw the wink...

You can upload while you download, just not seed.

Re: UGH>>>>What?

I had noticed that last spring, and it is one of many reasons why I don't use bittorent anymore to send videos or large files out. Kinda sucks that Cox does this, but at least they are honest about it.
