| Ray007 said: Not sure about the rest of the world, but your comments sure ring true in Australia. We’ve just recently had some adoption of ADSL2+ through a number of smaller players (wholesale resellers). But few people are lucky enough to have access to those speeds. Most current plans here are limited to a connection speed of 8Mbps and download quotas in the range of 10-50GB/month (which won’t get you too far for HD streaming). Higher quotas exist, but the costs are insane – my plan is AU$60/month and has a 20GB limit. The current government is completely clueless in regards to broadband (amongst other things). And with talks of a national broadband network only recently hitting the political limelight, the situation doesn’t look like changing for another 4-5 years. Basically, I don’t see “downloadable services” being successful here in Aus for quite some time. |
You have download quotas? That sucks...

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
