Not true for Shaw anymore (Score 1)

Shaw hasn't been advertising unlimited use for a long time (years). So you get what you pay for. More ISPs should do this. It's a lot better to actually know the real limit and have the ability to select a package that's better suited for your bandwidth use.

For example, the average package is 60GB per month and the highest residential package is 150GB/month. http://www.shaw.ca/en-ca/ProductsServices/Internet /ShawHighSpeedInternet/

Since this change I've never been contacted by them and I tend to download a lot.
