					|  |  
					| Canadian ISP Videotron is giving information about it's customer to the Canadian Recording Industry Association.
4 other Canadian isp's has refused to do so without a court order.
 
 Anybody who has videotron as their isp should send hate mails telling them that you are changing isp!
 
 Of all the things i've lost, i miss my mind the most!

					| This is old news.  Videotron is owned by Qebecore which owns Archambeaux(sp?) which has thousands of licenses with artists, which is why they will give up your info. 
 A good provider to be with is Bell, they fight for and protect consumer rights.

					| Are they really cheap? Because I can't see any other reason why someone would want to use them if they have a 20gig download limit and they divulge your private information.

					| It's slightly faster than the other main DSL offer (Bell's Sympatico)
 I'm with Sympatico, screw Quebecor Media.

 They are all about the same price but Cable is faster then DSL if i recall, cable get 200k/s faster than DSL...so people prefer to go faster but being watch and having a download/upload limit...people in Quebec are idiots...the worst part is that only Videotron have a limit...i dont care downloading at 315k/s...atleast i have the freedom to do whatever i want without constanly looking at where i am in the gig download
