How many times has it to be said that having a fast connection, say 3 Mb/s, doesn't mean that you have to push it to its limits all the time. Many people have cars that are capable of over 100mph but never go over 70 mph and are only used for a few hours per week. NTL could possibly give all customers 3 Mb/s and it wouldn't make much difference except for the few users who want to download the entire internet in a day and then do it again the next day.
