Im now on virgins 20 meg service and i think its ok. Not the best by any means, but ok. Upload over cable is by nature of the technology pathetic. Before moving i was on a 24 meg adsl2+ connection admittedly only a spit from the exchange, and it never missed a beat, if you do a lot of torrent downloading then a high upload bandwidth is important to keep your ratios in order. I like this cable service but the latest adsl technology in japan is offering 50 meg synchronous possibility upto 6km from an exchange, cable WILL NEVER be able to offer this on the current infrstructure. Like my v+ box tho!!!
