Actual competition!

I'm waiting for OR to do the same, hopefully. Annoyingly when I look at the coverage map, I am surrounded by places with G.fast and FTTP plans (and literally on the edge of one) but my exact area has nothing. I'm hoping it'll be soon.

I think your memory is lapsing again, Max. 50Mbit was
launched at the end of 2008, as the first 3.0 service but the great migration to 3.0 (Which was marketed as speed doubling) was
2012. That's when 20meg moved "for free" to 30meg and required users to get upgraded to a 3.0 device.
