Im with bigpond. I think its awsome

Bigpond cable.. Unlimited Downloads, cap at 10gb.. Unlimited up/down speed..

Only downfall is that it counts both uploads and downloads in your monthly allowance..

Otherwise, iinet or Westnet.

Mine!

Mine being Exetel. If you decide tosign up with Exetel, remember to PM me and get my referrer code from me. ADSL throughout Australia (via Telstra and Optus infrastructure). They are starting ADSL2, it's in testing at the moment (infrastructure from an unnamed company).

My favourite thing about Exetel is the uncounted download period. Right now it's from 02:00 to 10:00 It changes from time to time, stays between 8 and 12 hours. You get unlimited traffic in the uncounted download period. Upload is unlimited, always, so you can seed to your hearts content.

I have a blacklist of ISPs to avoid

Bigpond
Optusnet
AAPT
iPrimus
TPG

That's a big downfall, especially for P2P users.

Uhm.. that's no way near unlimited downloads. That's just a 10GByte download cap, wich is pretty crap for a month of broadband internet in the year 2006.

There is no such thing as unlimited speed. The rules of nature do not allow such thing to exist.

If you live in Canada, use Sympatico. I like it because you can negociate the price with them so you get a very cheap internet
