I tested 200mb broadband. Doesn't mean it's going to happen.

In fact I have no intention of supplying more than 40mb in the near future.

And no, Infinity's 40mb download isn't "as fast" as VM's 50mb but is faster in many other ways (e.g. double the upload). 80mb FTTC *will* be faster than VM's 50mb in almost every way measureable, including download speed hence VM feeling the need to compete by hiking 50mb up to 100 and 30mb to 60. VM's product will still remain inferior if you care about anything beside headline downstream speed, but alas the majority of the UK public don't even care about that.
