[whoahitznikki]

alrighty. so i'm going boy band crazy right now and i'm really wanting to get n'sync, bsb, spice girls, etc. songs!!! i haven't used limewire before (i've been getting all my songs on different sites online), and i was wondering if it's a good idea to download it? i just bought a new computer and i don't want to screw it up.

That is what I mean by capping, and I don't know if it's a universal issue, but comcast does it and more than likely would not raise it because of the torrent thing (I'd site what I mean, but the search function doesn't work on the site where I found the article). Saying you'll change to another service is great and all if there are in fact other options, but in a lot of places there aren't.

Hmmm... funny I use comcast. I noticed I was only gettin 5mbps. I called them, told them I have latency issues and I need to have the upstream/downstream decibels bumped up. They say they couldn't, I asked to speak to a tier 2 technician. Told the technician they must raise the bandwidth or I'm closing the account (which consist of On demand/HD channels and internet) and switching to Bellsouth (durin that time). That did the trick and bumped up the cap, way over the normal residential cap.
