Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition Well technically as I understand it, bit torrent itself is classed as illegal software, (my brother has been involved with cases where possession of it has been added to other charges), though your correct that it only will get really used if you've

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition Well, it's not so much BitTorrent that's illegal, as using it to do naughty things, like with most technology. For example, many Linux distros are indeed accessible via BitTorrent which is extremely efficient.Speaking of naughty things, sadly BT are

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition The irony with Bt, is that their actual employees ingineers, financial office etc once you can actually get to speak to them tend to be quite reasonable, and I've had reasonable experience with their tech support. The only problem is that their main

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition @Dark: Honestly, I'd pay more if--and this is a big if--I actually got a corresponding increase in service. Incompetence seems to be the hallmark of BT (we are a lot better off than countries including the US, it's true, but not by much IMO) but yes

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition Well Sebby, one thing I've noticed with Bt, and indeed part of the reason my dad got so narked with them is that they have no consistancy, and how good a contract you can get depends heavily upon how much you can basically yell at whoever your speak

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition Well while we're on the subject of bad internet providers, around where I live there's this one called hughesnet, with the worst internet service I've experienced in my life. For starters, they have a download limit of 256MB per day, which they call

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition Heh, interesting timing, BT rang me up yesterday to ask if perhaps I would like to renew my contract "To give me the best value possible". I ask if it'll cost more, and, oh yes, it does for the line rental, but not the calls. Asked them to check my

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition Well sebby one very odd fact about bt is that you can get good deals out of them often by just brow beating whoever you speak to, or by catagorically refusing the deals they offer until they give you free upgrade. This happened for me, they kept wan

Re: I demand change, starting with, a petition Well, hmm, Virgin Media and BT are realistically the only two options 'round these parts; the rest of it is just market differentiation under the absurd banner of "Competition". Gosh, our European pals must be so proud. But let me not derail yet ano
