Telstra’s entry-level broadband plan, which started this month, has increased the amount of data available to users tenfold. And new high-usage plans offering a massive 200Gb of data are also available and are designed specifically to satisfy the growing demand for movie downloads and multiple family members logging on at the same time.
An Optus spokesman said customers were increasingly viewing broadband as another channel for entertainment.
The company recently announced a home entertainment-based deal with Sony in which customers are offered unlimited broadband bundled with an internet-enabled 120Gb PS3 games console and wireless keyboard.
Sony plans to introduce its own movies-on-demand service next year for PS3 users.
