| Throttling A 3 Gig download in the space of a few hours amounts to about 3 full length movies or thousands of songs. A fraction of that should be sufficient for anyone using a broadband connection legally.
The network capacity is not infinite so stop being so damn greedy and let others get a chance. If I was Virgin Media and you were downloading at that rate regularly, I would be reporting you to the authorities. | |

Oh I see so the World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King expansion beta is illegal?
I do feel very guilty over my total 70GB downstream usage in the past 4 months being the incredible leech that I am.
Incidentally 3GB is equal to about 1/3rd of a dual layer DVD, which are available perfectly legally online. | |

He *is* improving, however. He's using his new-found knowledge of commas and periods to improve the readability of his comments. Although, if he gets a little flustered he reverts back to earlier behavior.
