It seems BT Yahoo have followed in the footsteps of NTL by introducing a download limit on their service. Although this won't be active until 2005 it's not going to please the majority of gamers out there.

Here's what they had to say :

To enable us to offer our best possible price to customers from now on we will be introducing a usage allowance on the amount of data that can be transferred each month.
These usage allowances will only be applied from early 2005.

BT Yahoo! Broadband 1MB 30GB
BT Yahoo! Broadband 500kbps 15GB

I really don't think this will do them any favours. The more internet literate amoungst already rate BT as a poor ISP. With the choices out there growing they are looking far less favourable. Especially with the likes of Blueyonder offering very competitive prices for 750k, 1.5Mbit and 3Mb lines.
