Jay,

Now, now, as I download files at a stunning 500 big K, I fondly remember 
the AOL guys who thought that AOL was the BEST!  Been using cable for 
three years and except for one brief stint where comcast lowered the 
ceiling to 1.5Mbs, it's all been smooth sailing. Now, if you're worried 
about terms of service, better read your own before taking to harsh a 
view of Comcast's - it's just gotten the lion share of press, most ISPs 
and providers have the same restrictions.
