That's because they traffic shaped everybody's connection so they didn't have to buy more bandwidth ;-)

Errm yes we CAN! They are unreliable and slow.
I suspect their profits are not down due to cost cutting, they recently fired a bunch of engineers, they have been saving a packet on their bandwidth costs by traffic shaping the living daylights out of us and they have no competition so don't need to offer competitive pricing.
