UK. most companies here if they are popular give a download limit every month or so. it accounts for everything from using torrents to loading images on sites

Unless you do a lot of filesharing, you shoudn't get anywhere near this limit.

I'm on 2Mbit NTL cable broadband myself. Not sure about the upload/download split, but it's probably the same speed both ways unlike ADSL.

Update: Just did a test using the site linked to below:
Download - 2Mb/s
Upload - 200kb/s
