Instead, they’re pushing for all their content to be unmetered on the National Broadband Network, according to Andrew Colley at the Australian. More »

1:13PM Nick Broughall | I just received confirmation that the ABC iView service for your PS3 coming later this year will be unmetered on Internode. I’ve put the question to iiNet as well, but they’re yet to come back to me. Although realistically, if Internode can do unmetered PS3 iView, iiNet probably will too…

1:30PM Nick Broughall | Dear iiNet,
If you’re going to continue to offer more and more awesome content in your unmetered Freezone, including Xbox Live, ABC’s iView and iTunes downloads, I’m REALLY going to need you to launch ADSL2+ at my local exchange so I can switch. Seriously, now that you’ve added Super 14 rugby to your Freezone, I’m so frustrated at the crappy deal I’m forced into putting up with because I need ADSL2+ that I’m probably going to have kick something just to stay sane.

Both Internode and iPrimus join iiNet in offering the national broadcaster’s video on demand service, where you can watch any of the six channels available. Now we just need all the other ISPs to follow suit, and add iTunes downloads to the unmetered list as well…

9:00AM Nick Broughall | Wow – iiNet seems to be on the warpath at the moment, and not just because they’re being sued. They’ve backed up their announcement that they’re planning on launching an IPTV service next year by making Xbox Live gaming downloads unmetered. That means you can download as many game demos and full games as you want, and play online as well without having to worry about exceeding your download limit.
Add this to the fact that iTunes downloads are unmetered, as is anything viewed through ABC’s iView, Premiere League football matches and NASA TV.
I’m telling you – if iiNet get off their backside (granted, they have been fairly busy recently) and launch ADSL2+ at my local exchange, I reckon I’d switch to them in a heartbeat. This kind of approach to internet content is exactly the kind of ISP I want to give my money to – it works out better for everyone. If nothing else, let’s hope that other ISPs start following iiNet’s example.
UPDATE: So actual Xbox Live gaming isn’t included – turns out iiNet can’t actually monitor it effectively. Still, for downloading demos and classic Xbox games this still rocks for iiNet customers.
