The point is you won't be able to do that. Only the local link to your house would be that speed - not everything beyond (many servers are only on 10mbit connections, many pipes into whole data centres are only 100mbit (or 155mbit)), this and all the interconnecting infrastructure could never sustain more than a few such high speed connections.
