Not all ISPs connected to PIPE actually offer free data from the PIPE

this is indeed true, I believe internode recently changed this and pipe

how true that is :)
Not quite. 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...
Cheers,
John...
32GB? But that's only six DVD's.... Surely not enough.. :)
