Sky has revealed plans to launch an all-new broadband bundle – dubbed Sky Broadband Ultrafast – designed to bring faster speeds to enable more devices to stream at the same time, watch videos in higher quality, and game online without any trance of a stutter.

Quote:

According to the UK broadcaster, Sky Ultrafast will give two million households access to over 12 times faster speeds than the standard broadband from Sky. Ultrafast will offer average download speeds between 145Mbps and 285Mbps, depending on which package you're willing to cough-up for.

You have to ask them why they are not offering 1Gb pip as they must have their reasons for not doing that.

Sky have continually complained about Openreach and pushed for their separation from BT and the lack of fibre. It has been available to them for over a year as I said but they've waited until now to take it up and try to make it a big revelation.
