All you Internode users like myself are aware that steam content is unmetered when dl from Australian node servers, but did you know that when you set your download servers preference to Internode in steam....it may not dl from them! This happened to me last night and it switched to an OS server and metered it. So now i use steamwatch which forces it to stay on node servers etc.

steamwatch is great except for when a new game is realesed on steam and everyone is whoring the node servers. I often just switch it off on game releases if I want to play them ASAP.
