The "local ISP mirror" is based on the official ubuntu mirror (or a
regional one depending on the ISP).

BT sounds like a great idea, until you have 12G a month to play with
where uploads and downloads are counted.  Every mb over is 15c.

Don't just assume that every ubuntu user has ADSL2+ with a quality ISP.
Doing so can mean that not insignificant parts of the user base are
alientated.
