some, if not most people won't ever get to 10gig to get dropped that far. I
borrowed my dads internet connection to download 5 iso cds that I wanted and
left a P2P program running on his machine and he went away so it was running
for 7 days 24/7 and he only got to 8Gig.

There's 30/31 days in a month - take away the ISOs and you did about 4.5GB
in that 7 days which works out to about 20GB for a month. Pretty easy to go
over the 10GB if you use p2p.

Assuming of course that you leave your PC on 24/7 and the P2P program loaded
24/7.

I doubt I'll ever reach 10GB......

I would have to download 15 CD ISOs in a month to do that....and I would
barely down 3-4 in a given month...and the rest of our (4 of us) mail and
web traffic doesn't come close to the remainder.
