Eclipse internet has two different types of packages "Home" and "Evolution"...

Home has set download limits per month, but Evolution has set download limits just during peak times (6-12pm)

Evoution (downloads only count between 6-12pm)
Option 1 - 20Gb - £14.99
Option 2 - 30Gb - £18.99
Option 3 - 40Gb - £24.99
Option 4 - 50Gb - £29.99

Home (downloads count at any time)
Option 1 - 2Gb - £14.99
Option 2 - 10Gb - £18.99
Option 3 - 20Gb - £24.99
Option 4 - 40Gb - £29.99

The "Evolution" download limits are HIGHER and are seemingly only considered for 1/4 of the day. The other 3/4s are not put towards your limit...!?

This makes no sense so why would ANYONE go for the "Home" package?

The only thing I can think of is if you want to download at top speeds during peak periods as all the Home packages are at the top priority. The £29.99 one makes no sense at all though as they're both at the same priority!

Well I would imagine no matter what package, the options are the "priority". ie: Evolution 2 would get preference over Home 1... (They are paying more!)
