I'll sum it up quick. Note... be careful of the limitations set upon by the ISP specifically bandwidth limitations... I have unlimited up/down but it really depends on where you live
I've had both cable and dsl... and DSL is the way to go but cable has its plus sides too!

Don't forget to factor in other stuff like newsgroup access and such.

DSL -
good:
Fast / usually unaffected by uploading (good for BT) / It is not shared with other people dedicated line / stable
bad:
Distance to your closest regenerator or switching station (either a small box or the actual building. The maximum distance for any DSL to be decent is approx 6KM or ~ 3.75Miles
so the farther you live the more likely that you'll have lower speeds.

Cable:
good:
Typically faster then DSL (though once again... dependant on the ISP offerings... I'm basing it off the two major ones in my area)
bad:
shared line speed may drop during peak hours / uploading kills the download speed (even for surfing and especially if your upload cap is very small (~20KB/s)

usually some ISP's may offer trials! so try it out and if it doesnt work out then... go to another.

it's everyone.... some people are submitting links with meta tags in them so it just redirects to the adv page.
