Post subject: v3 Beta 1 Feedback - Terminology

Hi,

I would like to suggest that the following terminology be corrected throughout the application: the word `bandwidth' means the *rate* of data flow (e.g. KB/s). It should not be used to describe the amount of data transferred.

For example, the following error message is misleading:
You have used all your bandwidth, please contact your service provider.

A better sentence would read:
You have exceeded your download limit...

The distinction is important because First Spot can do both bandwidth throttling and download limiting. Therefore, mixing the terminology makes the system confusing for users and administrators alike.

Regards,

Derek
