Very nice find! dslreports.com are a "very reliable" source of information.
So the games they're playing with their customers ... give them a little bit ... as soon as they are taking more than what OOL are willing to offer then time to cut them to size (the ool customers.) Then the shaping & filtering comes into effect & they all pretend they don't know anything. Actually AFAIK often most who work for the isp's don't know. It's only when there's competition in the same regional/local market that can be a threat that they are willing to compromise in part. If you have competition in your area, then see what they have to offer. See if they're willing to offer trials of their service.
