Britain's biggest broadband supplier has been accused of limiting download speeds on its cheapest package without giving users a clear warning. BT Broadband cuts the speed users can watch video services like the BBC iPlayer and YouTube at peak times. A customer who has signed up for an up to 8 megabit per second package can have their speed cut to below 1Mbps. A BT spokesman said the firm managed bandwidth "in order to optimize the experience for all customers".    (source: news.bbc.co.uk)
