Re: Will VM ever match BT's upload speeds?

I went for 100Mb because of the upload speed.

As mentioned with cloud computing upload is key .. virgin offer so called unlimited online storage but with my key family pics music and video at 500Gb it would be a joke to try to upload hence the server (backs up the family clients etc. as well)
You might find it more secure, to use a paid service like Livedrive. I use them for all our work files and media. Currently 2.1Tb. You can stream video from them via FTP into clients like XBMC.
