Best For Broadband

Broadband usage is sometimes overlooked when signing up for a new broadband package. Usage is defined as the amount of download you do a month (this can be email downloads, web browsing, file sharing, music downloads etc). You can also be capped by time as well, but few providers we’ve seen implement this restriction.

Unless you’re a serious games player or really into file sharing and music downloads, then it’s unlikely you’re going to need that much download usage. However it’s always nice to have as much as you can afford. We advise that you do try and get Unlimited usage if you can afford and then work your way down. If you’re a casual internet user you may find that 1GB to 5GB restriction is more than enough for you, but if you want to download itunes or other music files on a regular basis you may find that this is quite limited.
