Re: Corporate greed is reaching new levels....

Don't try your little semantic manipulations on me, mister. It won't work. We as humans, regardless of the language, when communicating, whether by peaking or writing, have to use a certain convention the usage of words, otherwise, up will end-up being down, east will be west. You want to get technical with me? How's this:

When "the rest of the world" says "download" it means to not only have the more bits and bytes in the downstream than upstream (yes, while "downloading", we are also always "uploading"), it is usually to determine if there will be an archival save of the said data on some form of physical media for retrieval in the future (hard drives, cd, dvd etc).

Furthermore "when you go online" is also misused. Most people that watch youtube are "always online" as their network connection is in one way or another, seldom ever severed. But you seem to equate going online to firing up your web browser.

Again, this is not clear and further demonstrates your poor usage of the english language, that according to you, I should have a lesser handle of, because of where I write from. What's your excuse? (rhetorical, please don't answer)

Your comment in that instance is akin to a redneck's level and borders on racism (based on geography) of all things. And this is the 21st century (if you hadn't noticed), there is no more room for that kind of intolerance.

So the usage of the word download, was erroneous without further clarification on your part and you know it, you're just being a PITA.

You have also completely sidestepped the throttling issue, I have noticed.
