In the last six months, I've experienced the Australian internet system, and the Malaysian system, and I gotta say, I don't know which is worse.

Malaysian crap one-choice-only ISP who throttles p2p, but no limits on how much you can download, and is decently priced.

Australian many-choices-ISP with lots of speeds, but almost all ISPs set limits on how much you can download, and you wanna download more, you pay more.

The Australian system generally works on the basis that you wanna download more, fine, but you pay hell for it. The only current ADSL1 1500/256 unlimited plan in Australia costs AUD$105, which is approximately RM290-300. Its actually a decent price for Australia, but the ISP will probably die in the next 6 months or start imposing limits once it gets enough customers.

You forgotten about Chinese government censorship?

That is true, I'm exaggerating relative prices since the RM is weak compared to many currencies.

That said, AUD 105 for "good" service is yet to be seen. Every Australian ISP that has advertised and sold unlimited plans on ADSL for around AUD 100 has either limited the plans, scrapped them, or the company has gone massively downhill a few months after the plans.

You want true unlimited with Australia's version of TMnuts? You'll have to pay AUD 300+ for it.
