Who's a good provider if I want to dl over 300 GB per thirty days (or
calendar month)? The maximum I'd dl is 500 GB.

I'd like a reasonable dl speed, a nice ul speed, _clear_ limits and
restrictions, and then a reasonable price.

It'd be nice if they had some kind of Usenet service too.

I don't need email or web space. I don't do p2p so I'm happy if
that's filtered.

300 GB is a bit tricky. Some providers clearly limit / throttle at
much less, but others have fuzzy limits where it might trip throttles
some weeks, but not others.

Zen's business ADSL Max service ("Office 8000") would allow it, but it
costs 79 pounds a month.

People easily make that up when they sell DVDs on a market!

And he'd be downloading at a rate of 11MB per minute non stop assuming a
constant download rate for his 500 GB usage

Perhaps he is seeing how long it would take to actually download the
internet?

Donkey pr0n and goat felching?

It's not business, but I'd pay business rates for good service.

For the sake of any TSOs reading: Any copyright violation that I

I'll bet !

And how much do you expect to pay ?

Be say they have no limits on downloads IIRC (if you buy the unlimited package).

Why would an absence of commercial use make it any more legal ?
