Those kinds of speeds(100 mbps and up) to customers will be technically feasible in a year or two from US cable companies. But to make them widely available, infrastructure would have to be vastly updated, with numerous node splits in every neighborhood across the companies footprint. And that involves spending a great deal of money. Don't expect these speeds in most areas for up to 10yrs away.
Who knows maybe in 10 years people will need 100 Mbps. To be honest( and I'm a more speed the better guy ) who really needs 100 Mbps? Unless you're trying to download a bunch of blu-ray dvds. To stream something in 1080p would only take 16-20 Mbps. How many sites are going to do that?
No, nobody really needs the 100Mbps at the moment but we currently could use speeds around 20Mbps down and more upload.
