Why is everyone blaming p2p users? I've said it once and I'll say it again, DDL and streaming use more bandwidth than P2P technology. Your router slowing down isn't the effect of 'p2p sucking all your bandwidth' but due to the amount of connections that P2P software make. Not to mention the saturation of your uplink (which you would not use fully otherwise) for network efficiency. You don't see TM capping upload speed do you? :/
But we have routers that are fast enough to keep up with the p2p protocols nowadays and many of them have switched to UDP. ISP routers are leagues ahead in terms of load handling when compared to your home routers. Why do you think TM caps Youtube? TM releases one press release simply stating that P2P uses all the bandwidth and you guys suck it as though they're telling the truth without doing any research. Next they'll say accessing non-TM webmail accounts slows down their entire network and you people will just believe them and start bashing gmail/hotmail users.
I remember reading in the newspapers that 'Youtube is slow because the servers are far away'. Nearly choked on my drink when I read that.
Bloody ridiculous >_>
Muahahaha, TM still thinks 70% of their users are morons but I think if everyone here believes what TM is saying, then it could be higher. The big guys are using CDN nowadays. Try pinging youtube and i'm sure its 80ms or so. 80ms can be local or in neighboring countries and except for certain controlled contents, it will only allow access from certain countries.But we have routers that are fast enough to keep up with the p2p protocols nowadays and many of them have switched to UDP.
