Incase you don't know what it does, I can watch movies over the internet on my TV without using a PC, accesing the iTunes store.
It is not important for me to send data fast. I want to receive data fast. When you send an email, you don't sit their waiting for it to go do you, but you you do wait for an email to arrive.
BTW Whats STM?

You realise you need to upload to download, right?
Try watching that hi-def movie on 50mbit while browsing the net/downloading something else etc, the upstream isnt fast enough (1.5mbit), any sort of multitasking will literally cripple the hell out of it.
I know what AppleTV is, and they will be using P2P in the future for IPTV, 1.5mbit upload isnt gonna cut it when that happens.
Sending data fast is just as and sometimes even more important than recieving data fast, but i dont think you understand that =/
STM = Subscriber Traffic Management which as i'm sure your aware is now 10am-3pm and 4pm-9pm, hope you wont be watching you hi-def movies then because you get shaped down to 5mbit (not fast enough for hi-def streaming) and 10mbit on the 50mbit tier
