My definition of unbeatable speeds is they have the fastest broadband available in the UK..

I'm interested to know what their definition is.

BSKYB are not leading anything in my mind! £17 for 3Mbit and 0.5mbit when throttled is an absolute con!

Sky connect is by far one of the country's worst broadband packages and worst value for money offering terrible speeds and crappy that your lucky to get a signal from half a foot away. It's near impossible to even browse after 5pm so its almost part time broadband.

I cannot comment on their other packages as I wouldn't take another risk. with them.
BT Infinity may well offer the best speeds in some areas where there is no direct competition from cable, so the marketing is technically correct.

Also, The Sky product may be bad in your area but thats not the same everywhere else. I can pull 20Mbps quite easily on my ADSL2+ connection.

Also... Sky Connect - No arguments there!
