The average speeds are 8/6/4/2Mb download and 512kb upload.
And i must say, this country ban didn't surprise me... If you don't know, i'll tell you: Portugal is a poor country. One of the poorest in Europe, our ISP's suck big time (speeds and cost ratio), most of users have 512kb of upload, most of...us can't afford seedboxes, not to mention buying official DVDs, CDs or games, and adding to that, there's something in latin mentality of getting something no matter what, to trick the system, don't pay taxes, etc, etc. I guess Brazil and Romenia can fit in this description also.
For instance, i've played for some time an online game, Enemy Territory, and i've faced cheaters from inumerous countries but, sadly, portuguese cheaters were the majority.
So, as i said, altough i think that it should be a more selective ban, i can understand the country ban and i can see bitmetv or other track doing this kind of bans to see if we "learn" how to behave from now on...

Most of that is true.
But in my opinion I don't see any of those reasons justifying the behaviour of some scum. Is out there many other trackers that provide almost the same content (ok but not with the same speed and quantity of series) and is not so hard to seed on them like is in BMTV.

Hum? Sadly to say but it is the truth!Portugal is a poor country. One of the poorest in Europe
Man its not a truth
We've come out of a dictatorship only 30 years ago and the so called democracy only worked to fill the elite society pockets, make some highways, bridges and shopping malls.
The average wage is about 600 euros a month! An average ISP account of 8mb/512kb is 30 euros. A movie DVD is 20/25 euros. An average meal on a restaurante is 10 euros. Like a famous portuguese "politician" once said: you make the maths.

You are absolutely right, sir.
Even if it´s not necessary to trick for getting something we´ll be tempted to.

I've just remembered something, regarding football and Cristiano Ronaldo diving and the "latin mentality".
I can say to you that, for instance, during a broadcast of a portuguese league football match it's very common to hear the tv pundit saying something like this, after a player dived and getting awarded with a penalty kick: "Oh! That's brilliant the way how he managed to trick the referee and won a penalty. Very good.". I don't need to say what were the reaction of tv pundits in english football or nordic countries...
It's embebbed within our very souls. We can't get rid of it or avoid it. Unless, of course, if someone bans us...

there is some resentment towards the country and its citizens? so mush pessimism. clear that much is wrong but this topic is not on the situation of a nation!
eih I am an optimist by nature! But I also know that many things are going to a path with no way out ...
