ok, here is my suggestion:
Since ur roommate using Starhub, ask him upgrade to MaxOnline
Ultimate plan (up to 100,000 kpbs), then u share the monthly fee
with him, problem solved.
btw, last time I checked with Starhub saying I'm using Bittorent
all the time, they said "NO problem!" so long as we dun hack ppl or
doing some SCAM business.
