Because many ISP's throttle p2p
thank god mine doesnt. though... I'm pretty sure that my router does, at least sortof. after two full days of running nigh-on full load in and out (freeleech at What right now), it simply shut down on me. I let it sit for a few minutes, blew some air through the vents, ran strong for another 2 hours, it shut down again, then figured "maybe this is just a little too much for it" and throttled uTorrent back to 50%. All is good. My ISP doesn't do anything that resembles caring
+1 my isp "throttles" but.... just enable encryption in u-torrent and bye bye throttle lol.... always maxed out just use good torrents + proper set up
(I feel for you about the router mine dies like that when I push it overnight or something, would turn it off for twenty or so mins then it's fine again)

use port 80 or 443 they wont throttle those but those are htp/https
and there is a problem with both sides, u cant have the media prices and lack of quality for online sales. people will go for the better quality so with itunes or the like using POS compression its no wounder why. then with record stores dieing since they have competition (legal and illegal) they have to stock less so u cant get older stuff, its a circle of fail. same for movies u cant go to the local block buster or best buy and get anything that isnt new or in the last 2 years if u are lucky
