Internode have recently declared PIPE traffic un-prioritised (as opposed to un-metered) for Flatrate customers only. So, while PIPE traffic will still count towards your 7 day rolling download total (reduced from a 30 day rolling total recently), it will always come down at full speed when other traffic is slowed by Flaterate prioritisation.
Btw, I have to say that I'm not really concerned, as my plan (512/128 premium) has just gone down in price from $99.95p/m to $79.95p/m with a download limit increase from 24GB to 32GB, so I'm over the moon! :) As far as I am concerned, 32GB per month is unlimited enough to not have to worry about excess fees...
