 From the site : "no belgacom fixed line? promo now only *5,00* 
euro/month extra during the first 12 months (instead of 13,31 euro)"

So yes, we are getting this from Bommel, we don't want or need a phone 
line from Belgacom. Make note that most of the prices are for the first 
12 months only, but hey...
    
        
Seeing that their non-promo price is the same as what I'm paying now, it 
could quite possibly be the same. As said, I also thought I had ordered 
a phone line from EDPnet, but it was a Belgacom guy who came to connect 
it. Possibly Belgacom still has a monopoly on the actual copper line 
infrastructure?

I think they do yes, but as long as I'm only paying for the actual 
copper and not for a telephone line with a new number etc, it's fine for 
me :)
    

They indeed just sell you a basic connection, no services attached.
So... my conclusion is that I don't need to change to Bommel, until I 
see that my 100 GiB limit is insufficient. And if I need to download 
something after that, I first ask the girl with the 200 limit.

Maybe only considering to get my copper line directly from Belgacom, as 
it's slightly cheaper... only I guess that'll be another hassle.

I think you should be able to hit it pretty easy if you start downloading all your favorite series/movies in fullHD/bluray/1080p quality.
Otherwise (if you think divx is enough or you simply don't have the equipment to play it all in full HD anyway)  100 Gb is actually plenty. (Except for maybe the first months where "Hey let's download all Star Trek episodes" still sounds like a great idea).
