There is a 200MBit tier, though. The media reports were about a 300Mbit tier (That never happened at the consumer end), so a lot of people assumed it would be 50 -> 100, 100 -> 200 and 150 -> 300. That's what never happened but to my knowledge you are spot on, it was media conjecture.
From memory, this has been the recent speed increases. The "doubling" was actually a few speed increases ago,
10 -> 20 -> 30 -> 50 -> 100
20 -> 30 -> 60 -> 100 -> 150
50/100 -> 120 -> 152 -> 200
Note: 30mbit and above required new equipment, so it was not automatic. The 50/100 to 120Mbit was a tier merge.
