Chew on that TED.
You forget that Ted owns Rogers Video. He wants you to go rent that movie from his Rogers Video store.

What I don't get, it why do I need caps on the lower end rates ? Ultra lite requiring a 2GB cap ?
It's to make it so unattractive, that the user will upgrade to the next tier up.

And how many movies is that oh mighty Rogers god of mathematics???

What's this? We're allowed to use 'Bittorrents'? But howwww? You throttle the bujeezus out of them?....

Who does their marketing, clearly they think we're idiots, or I guess just ignorant.
I love their average of 60MB for HD movie trailers from Apple, last few trailers I watched there were all over 200MB.

Exactly... You don't see any reference to any sort of bandwidth heavy app on here. Forget HD, even streaming basic apps would blow this out of the water.
I Fedora Core 6 ISO = 3.4 GB

What I don't get, it why do I need caps on the lower end rates ? Ultra lite requiring a 2GB cap ?
