And they wonder why digital and streaming hasn't killed off physical media already. 
I'm not even in the sticks, there's 28,000 people living in this town! |

BT have refused to upgrade our cab steadfastly for years putting it back and back. The latest I've heard is that they'll start thinking about our cab in 2016 again  |

A lot of the time we can't even stream youtube let alone HD Netflix etc. All of my games are on Steam now but I buy them at home then have to wait till I get to work to download them on a 50mb cable connection and use a USB drive to bring them home. If I download a game at home it can take days even when our connection is good at 350kbs. |

Providers don't care about customers, they care about how many people live in a area to provide for, more people more cha ching, less people......they can wait until we have provided our cha ching customers  |

This is what it looks like when you are throttled for downloading too much in a short space of time...   |
