4000 kbps for a premium package ? That's SLOW man. Too Slow.

Satellite connections and online play = very high ping times
If you don't care about online play, then its a good option; however, you should keep in mind that during the winter months, these type of connections suffer greatly in terms of quality and stability.

I think they have a crappy quota.
I used a similar service years ago, upload by phone modem and download by satellite. There was some latency, so there was a little delay (a couple of seconds) before seing the webpage, but then it loaded fast. The download was good too, but the quota very limited (I think 1GB/month) and it kept getting exhausted in less then a week. Because of these limitations, I found it to be useless and stopped using it. But it was nice to see download speeds of 256KB (1mbps) :)
PS: I didnt notice a service deterioration during winter months.
