I just got a call about this from my dad and said it's not worth it purely for gaming or even streaming.

Twitch if you want to stream to that only allow a maximum of 3.5Mb, IIRC Youtube are the same and when you actually play games the most I have seen any game use is 1Mb to 2Mb so it's not, worth it for that.

Uploading videos to Youtube, then yes the increase would be worth it especially for me as most of the time when I upload a video it's over 5GB in size for 1080p and over 10GB in size for 4K.

If you want a decrease in Ping, then it's down to the ISP to sort out the routing of the traffic and the server hosting companies to have a decent server hardware wise and also a decent, amount of bandwidth going to it otherwise your ping is going to stay the same.

I would be very surprised if this makes any difference to pings or ability to stream, unless Virgin decide to start limiting them on none "Gamer" tier broadband tiers.

It doesn't seem to want to give the actual image, no matter what I try but the below test was done whilst gaming on the Xbox One and talking in a party chat, so I cannot see how it's going to improve something that is already pretty decent.
