Hardly compelling evidence, really
Ok prove they don't want faster upload, Your problem is you think VM are fantastic and will not allow anyone to post anything against them. You do it all the time on any forum to spam on.

And 95% of UK customers are on 24mb or below. Only 5% of all UK customers opt for 30, 40, 50, or 100mb services combined, despite >50% having at least 50mb available to them. From OFCOM's government commissioned survey.[2]

You said for most people upload speed isn't an issue. Where's your compelling evidence?

We've not seen any evidence from you either, just a lot of bitchy comments.
I want more upload and the more the better. I use it for FTP

No. I questioned the OPs statement that "most people want faster uploads". I did not offer any opinion on the matter. Mainly because I don't know what most people want. The OP may be right.

Of course, but that wasn't my point about why I should not ask for evidence of something.

No, but then I'm not offering any opinion or facts on the issue. Whilst I don't personally need faster upload speeds, I wouldn't say no to them.

I don't have to prove anything as I'm not the one making the statement.

There does seem to be a number of people on here who really don't seem to know how a discussion works.

Anyway, I am sorry if I mistook an opinion for a statement of fact.

Of course that is complete and utter nonsense that is proved wrong simply by reading my various posts.
