 Will you pay for VPN to bypass P2P/BT throttling?

VPN waste money only...just pay for direct download service like filesonic, fileserve etc...can download full speed.

I repeat, VPN + Bit torrent in the hope of full speed BT, is a waste of time and money. Been there, done that.

P2P still works for me in a range of ip, tested, confirmed it is

as long as I got the right ip, it's like unthrottled p2p connection like the internet I use when I was in Australia,

download almost everything from public tracker, always hit maximum speed in few seconds from clicked "Start" on utorrent,

other ip ranges, fastest always below 40kb/s, average 20kb/s,
often at single digit speed, takes long time to go higher speed

I'm going to go 4mbps if it's available in my place, (Unifi no need think la, not possible), and most likely will lost my "p2p ip range" on 2m/4m streamyx package, they get different ip than 512k/1mbps account,

if that happens on upgrade to 4mbps, yes I will subscribe VPN, I don't often use DDL , especially for a single huge file, or with tons of splitted files, so lazy and troublesome to dl like that. and possible get file corruptions

Never happened to me before. And i've been DDL for over a year after giving up torrenting. There is this thing called MIPONY (or other download managers), which managed your DDL download, and extract the files automatically from multiple splitted files. I have never ever encountered a corruption file yet.
