Similarly if you are download enthusiast and use the newsgroups and pay for Giganews or similar you will probably get a 40-50Mbit connection. Other wise 15Mbit is what you will connect to most sites at if your lucky.
i agree Giganews or easynews could possibly max out a 50 meg connection, but they might have to increase the number of concurrent connections allowed to their servers. giganews allow 20 SSL connections atm. i have a feeling this will have to increase. your disc space shrinks at an alarming rate when downloading from newsgroups unless you back up to DL DVD or Bluray(which is a PITA). if VM increase speeds to 50 meg then i for one will have to be a lot more selective in my downloads.
