absolutely, it can be a bit of anticlimax. Everyone loves to moan about VM and all the network problems but for most (including myself) my 120mbit connection trumps anything I can get from anywhere else big time. When fttc was first made available in my area at the beginning of the year i predicted to get 53/13. Qas posted something last week which made me think about checking again to see if there had been any improvement and to my dismay the predictor now says 48/8. "Fiber" to the cabinet sounds great in theory but it would definitely be a come down for me if I went back to 50mbits because that is what I was on 2 years ago.
Realistically I think I'll be with VM for however many years until they sort out fttp. Even then, if Liberty Global go the way they want to in terms of standards and gigabit speeds get rolled out on docsis 3.1 I might end up being a lifetime VM customer
