Broadband plus v broadband option 2

just recieved an EMail today from PN referring to my monthly usage. Currently I am restricted to 128kbps - and p2p blocked entirely - till my next billing point (about 10days away).
I have no issue with this at all - you have to pay for any service that you use.
The suggestion from PN is that I change to "Option 2" rather than "Broadband Plus" - OK - has anyone done this upgrade and can make a comment ...... ?
Price is the same apparently and I work early AM to early PM so there is very limited usage between 8am and 4pm.
I suspect this increased usage may well be here to stay - I use BBC iPlayer, and I'm about to subscribe to my football teams streaming match highlights, and as I have recently upgraded my system to a Vista 64bit machine there is a lot of driver downloading and upgrading of existing programs for the new OS going on.
If I do upgrade, I assume that EMail addresses etc remain the same ? Are there any other practical difficulties ..... ?

To me upload and download speeds are far more important than price, and the extra monthly cost is well worth it.

Sorry to be pedantic, but I moved to Pro. Is there still a Plus product?

Yes, but the OP is talking about a move from BB Plus to BBYW Option 2.
Quote Is there still a Plus product?
Yes, it's a legacy product - we still have customers on it, but we don't sell it any more.

Plus is a legacy product. However, PN don't automatically move people from legacy products to the newer offerings as some people find that the older product suits their needs better.
