HOLY SHIT!!!! THAT IS ****ED UP!!!!! I WILL KILL THOSE BITCHES!!!!
p.s. I won't i'll just get really mad!:hotmad:
Hey, that's wierd. I found that exact same article and posted it on another message board. Sucks for cable users.
Interesting. I hate to say it but this doesn't really suprise me. And as much as I dislike it, I'm pretty sure they'll end up implementing it. It won't stop P2P though, it'll simply slow it down.
times like this im glad i ignored my friends and got dsl :D
that is because i am from the future yes thats right am your future self ive returned to the pass to let you and others know of this great horror that will soon be apon us all o_O :grazy:.......... lol nah i saw this on anotehr message board and...... started... to pass on the word :eek2: ahh whatever as long as people know about it so um spread the word some more and stuff :bounce:Quote:

Uh, was it GameFAQs? That's where I posted it.
Hm.. Well first off, nice to see another Sage besides myself around here.
Secondly.. That's an annoying thing to read, Especially since Charter is my Cable ISP.. *sigh*
Oh well, it doesn't bug me so much that it stops piracy (that's really a good thing in it's own way)
But the fact I use up a lot of bandwidth just naturally by transfering everyday files..
If I lose that i'll go crazy.. I can't afford to pay anything more than I currently am.
DSL Anyone?
Must suck to have cable now, maybe you'll find a DSL ISP in your area. Like me.
That article only applies to the US right??? Not other countries right?
I would think it applies everywhere, though it has yet to happen so I wouldn't worry.. yet..
Again I don't mind it slowing down warez but.. I can't afford my bandwidth limit to go down.
oeeeeeeee So I won't get bothered with my 56k right?:grazy: ....ow wait, I never dl anything bigger then 5 MB....(takes too long)
um i dont think so i think it was either arcadeathome or something elseQuote:

most p2p applications suck.
ftp all the way
haaaaaaaaaaaa i have the ****ing cable
Oh well...
wouldnt it apply to any type of broadband connection? dsl is considered broadband...
Oh damn, talk about bad news...
nah it just applies to cable, it really effects p2p apps since there are some people who are very generous with there files lol also when you think about it it kinda helps the cable companies more then music companies since the cable companies get more moneyQuote:

Well, it was a long time before flat-rate charges reached the UK from the US. I hope its the same this time, or better, it doesn't happen at all.
That does really suck for those people with the high speed connection. And here i was thinking about getting att broadband. Maybe i might reconsider and look for different high speed isp.
Well, I'm glad I have 56K... the speed might suck, but I'm not effected.
56k is nothing to be proud of. man, i hated those days.
Well, it cheaper than broadband, and it's not as slow as people say it is. If you're downloading it is, but normal surfing works just fine. Only a few pages that I know of load ultra slow. Emuparadise's home page is one of them...
Heh. Me 2. Only problem with DSL is the damn Dynamic IP get's a little annoying. . .Quote:
