    My ISP will automatically throttle my house if I was slurping up that much bandwidth. It simply isn’t feasible for most people as ISPs usually throttle speeds when they detect sustained high bandwidth activity.

        Bell Canada. One of 2 of the only options for ISPs in Canada.

            I am fortunate to have the option to switch internet providers.

            That is what I was referring to.
