However after watching a friend only be able to get around 8mb down while recording tv when i get 18-22mb down while 3 tv's are on in the house will keep me with shaw.

8 mbs is tons for me. Im on shaw highspeed and I get nothing in regards to downloading so I could definitly settle for 8 mbs! Thats still 400-500 kbs a second on a decent torrent

Also what is the best offering right now from telus? I might as well use it with shaw retentions to get a free pvr rental and then just switch to telus later if I still choose to. I have HD plus sports shaw highspeed and basic phone for 120ish a month so I feel I am geting ripped off
