This one I had already read.  The passage below didn't seem 
applicable (yet) because while using uTorrent, my uplink 
bandwidth was normal: 
 
"Douglas would not specify what the company means by "access" -- 
Comcast subscribers can download BitTorrent files without 
hindrance. Only uploads of complete files are blocked or delayed 
by the company, as indicated by AP tests." 
 
So I thought, I'll wait and see if this starts happening in my 
area.  Actually, they seem to be pretty lenient here for the time 
being.  I'd have expected them to re-throttle almost immediately 
after I changed my ports in WinMX yesterday, but they haven't 
yet.

What do you think might result from this?  If they'd provide as 
much bandwidth as I want, I'd be willing to pay a little more 
(even though it already costs a fortune), if I'm able to.
