I think soon they will stop having such low usage limits especially as more people are legally downloading content, such as BBC programs that went on trial this month. Oh and the new consoles coming out.

If you have a BT line, why not go for Tiscali? They have uncapped 1meg and 2meg services. Why the 1meg has just been reduced to 14.99 a month with free modem and everything...

15 Gb is quite sufficient for quite heavy usage, unless you download movies. B has a speed cap on bittorrent, so you tend to upload more than you download unless it's from legit sources.
I regularly hit just under 30GB a month.
1Gb sucks ass. I wouldn't even consider it.
And don't any Broadband services offer no limits at all? My dial-up sucks balls, but it certainly doesn't have a limit to how much you can do.
ntl (if you can use them) also has limits, but they are a little more generous.
"ntl recently annouced within their Q3 2004 financial results that new higher speeds will be launching around the start of 2005, those being 1MB with a 5GB monthly bandwidth usage, 2MB with 30GB monthly bandwidth usage and a 3MB connection with a 40GB monthly bandwidth usage allowance."
I recently downloaded all of Lost and didn't come up against any limits. But then hat was about 8GB on the 2MB connection. You'd have to do some serious downloading to hit those limits.
