Thanks for posting that . Very useful to refer people to.

You should be looking for reassurance on capacity, not simply usage limits

As you say, I also think congestion is a very probable issue.

@zadeks when you say don't touch -- would be useful if you'd clarify why. Certainly for some people it may not be appropriate. P2P perhaps.

However for many it remains IMO a good option. 300 GB is a higher limit than you'll find for 25 pcm. So for me it really was the only viable option.

I use about 100-160 GB/month. Much of the time I get 32 Mbps+ (profile is 34). On one occasiononly in nearly 2 months when tested (peak) I got lower than 27 (it was about 23) but it could have been a local problem.

As previously I had an unlimited 3-4 Mbps infinity was a good match for me.

Customer support (albeit via twitter/email/forum) sorted out a HH3 for me after I showed the HH2 was cr*p - all sorted out pretty quickly with ppl who knew what they were talking about.

is Infinity any good for streaming tv ??

Of course he's misinformed. He isn't even a BT user but confidently trumpets that its throttled at all times.

Evidence, to the contrary, posted by a BT user (me) who knows what it does and doesn't do is posted.

Who do you think is more accurate?

Yes -- I've streamed
- BBC iPlayer (SD, HD)
- YouTube (anything up to 1080p)
- muzu tv
- lovefilm movies
- demand 5
- itv player, 4od (PC only)
- catchup tv (live streaming)
etc

Not only that but there's enough bandwidth for multiple streams concurrently if other ppl in house using

Streams also often will start near immediately. certainly iplayer on my samsung TV even in HD plays in less than 1s - no more waiting/buffering.

You are restricted to 300GB fup, but at least it's simple - no time of day to worry about.

iPlayer HD (720p) uses around 1.5GB/hour, SD must be round 0.75 GB/hour. Youtube 1080p may be higher

Must like your TV lol.

Only used iplayer and youtube myself but it runs nicely.

Who do you think is more accurate?

Probably neither of you.

But this is a forum. People post their opinions. And that's what they are.....just opinions.

It didn't sound like trumpeting to me. If anything you seem to be sycophantically "trumpeting" BT all over the forum. That's your perogative. I just wish you could refrain from trying be so confrontational about other peoples posts. Getting boring.

Can you please start trying to put your opinion across with a little less rudeness, a little less spite and a little less "I know better than you". As numerous people have stated, it's getting old and it makes your opinion practically worthless with each spiteful reply.
