Yes lowering cost's (infrastructure) is the key...but
be it from linux distro's or "other" content you nor insight can prove that this is what people are using their BT for...and what difference is to Insight??? NONE whatsover...BANDWIDTH+EQUIPMENT=$$$ That is their concern, Insight would be happy if you just browsed a couple websites and sent a couple of email's a day and that is all..
Insight is more than happy to sell you the service BUT when you want to use it is when they have a problem with it...
Downloading Content infringing copyright's vs legal BT use has no additional cost to Insight whatsover I challenge you to show me otherwise...
As a provider it is in Insight's best interest to try (key word most of the time being try) and run a network not police end user morality...
For those that have not noticed bandwidth price's have dropped considerably within the past several year's and will continue to fall...
And no the statement Insight provides better than DS1 performance is only 1/2 true...it is not even close on the upload side of things 384 or 512 != 1544...
And yes I have read the AUP and legally it does cover action's such as these...
IMO If insight can't take the BT they need to
1)Build a better network 2)Just get out of the business
Bottom line |

| Downloading Content infringing copyright's vs legal BT use has no additional cost to Insight whatsover I challenge you to show me otherwise... Challenge accepted, whom do you think copyright holders send their subpoenas to? All they send are IP address to an ISP. The ISP is required to have employees look up customer information and inform these customers of what is going on. They must then also send this information back to the copyright holders. The time it takes a person to perform this job costs money.
With legal uses of BT there are no subpoenas based on what is being sent. Therefore there is a cost difference between legal and illegal uses of BT. Challenge accepted and challenge won, have a nice day please drive through. |

2 edits | WoW what a load sh!t..I don't know where to begin..
You mean to tell me that the cost of passing a couple letters on to a customer is signifigant enough to even consider!!?! Gimme a break.
Ok you tell me how much this cost's insight then? And remember you are probably refering to staff that makes not much more than min. wage here...I can make a claim that someone downloaded copyright'd material of mine to any ISP if they downloaded it or not, through BT or not,this is not BT specific...BFD...I am talking of substantial cost's that are worth noting!! not nickle and dime stuff I'm sure Insight loses more money with employee's standing around on smoke breaks...so let's get real here...
Challenge accpeted and challenge lost, Please try again have a nice day bla bla bla |

| I like how the challenge rules changed in your last post. You said "BT use has no additional cost to Insight whatsover" I proved it does. Now your new rule is substantial costs. I am not saying it costs a tone of money but it does cost more then 0 which is what you first said to prove. |
