well, if you paid for bandwidth for your business and they capped it against your contract, then you'd have something to complain about.
The throttling they're looking to do is mainly to ensure that everyone gets a fair share of bandwidth during peak loads in a limited system.

Eventually, they'll have to upgrade everyone's last mile connection or make available privately owned connections.. but until then, throttling of P2P isn't a terrible thing.
