Yes, you can now download movie videos. Entire albums of your favourite songs are waiting to be played on your computer. Your photos are waiting to be uploaded, sharer and blogged. There are high definitions wallpapers showing underwater sea life with amazing clarity that you want to download. You want to have a little chit- chat with your grandma sitting by the beach in Australia. Fortunately, technology makes all of this possible- but without a solid, uninterrupted broadband connection, trying all these tech- savvy things end up in a very frustrating experience. This explains why the Office of National Statistics (ONS) revealed over 88% of internet users in the UK opting for broadband connection rather than dial up. Choosing the right broadband service for your needs is a matter of much importance. There are several factors to consider while making this decision. Does the speed offered by your broadband service provide apt for your needs? If you use the net to surf the web and read news websites, a lower speed might suffice. On the other hand, if the 5 second 'Buffering...' interruptions in video clippings bother you to no end and you still want to watch the video briefing on BBC or CNN, or download songs from iTunes, you might have to look for a connection with high speed data transfer. For loading chat applets, voice or video calling, and using VOIP technology for Internet Phones also requires high speed connectivity. Of course, the price charged by the provider plays a crucial role in your decision. There are limited and unlimited data transfer options available in the market at competitive prices. There are many broadband service providers in the UK market. While they are competing with each other for market share, some charge a small one-time set up and others do it for free. A connectivity contract has to be signed, which is usually of a one-year duration; some plans require a 1.5 year contract and the usage is usually divided into a few plans: low capacity limit (around 2-5 GB), mid capacity limit (usually 10- 40 GB) and Unlimited download. BT, AOL broadband, UK Online, sky, pipex and plusnet are only some of the broadband services offering great deals. So if your dial up has been driving you crazy, you know you are in the remaining 12% of net users in UK and its time to make your move fast and your internet connection even faster.
