Re: What good is 200Mbps?

your still not grasping the concept of MORE THEN ONE CONNECTION

and you can use 20Mbps connection easily and legally
lets say... i want buy a game one Steam and a room mate is trying to watch some thing streamed from netflix
or and then some one else is getting stuff off of XBL

add VoIP in mix and gaming

sure maybe one site cant give you more then 10Mbps at a time
but that doesnt mean you cant be getting data from 2 or more sites at the same time

sure most of the time slower line would work out
but if every one is home and roommate A. is raiding and on vent and room mate b. is trying to watch streamed from nextflix
there not going to be happy when i start downloading from Steam

and oh steam can max out damn near any connection and when a game is 6-8GB let me tell you 100Mbps would be nice to have

PC gaming is moving to downloaded games Steam is selling more then any brick and morter store and id rather get a game off steam then drive the store pay 50 bucks and deal with shitty DRM
