Verizon announced a 50 Mbps connection @$90/month. Forget the price for a moment, but 50 M?!?!?! What can I do with 50M that I cannot do with lets say 6M? If I can get decent (read: steady, uninterrupted, consistent) 6M download speed, I can do what I normally do and some more.

I guess 50M at home is going to target Online Netflix movie downloaders who can get their movies 5-10x faster with this service. But other than movie downloads, I don’t know what could motivate me to go to that speed.

Unless my internet provider offers a ‘free upgrade’ ;-)
