I also think there really is no need for 50Mb/100Mb etc. I understand a few people need them for work but even then sending files over night only needs 10Mb maximum.

Some people make out they're basically sending 100's of Gbs a day then claiming to be on a none business connection. Unless you're stealing a couple of Blueray rips a day there is no need for more than a GOOD QUALITY 10-20Mb connection.

On my Sky connection we can stream a HD film on Sky Anytime+ while someone is playing xbox and another just basic browsing no problem. Our iTunes download times are fine but then we NEVER download illegal films/files etc.

My Mrs transfers a fair bit of data from our home connection and uses VPN, an we never struggle. A good solid 10Mb+ is enough right now for the AVERAGE user.
