Faster home broadband is about as inevitable as Moore’s Law would predict. Having reached the point where top speeds of 1 Gbps are the current standard, we are heading to 10 Gbps over the next half decade or so.
Which is one reason we are going to be hearing more about 20 Gbps internet access, and why firms such as AT&T already sell commercial service at 2 Gbps and 5 Gbps in lead markets.
’
Though the demand increase will mostly make sense for multi-user households, the historic increase in top of market speeds is quite linear. That does not mean most users will buy the top-rated tier of service. The general rule is that most consumers will buy the mid-tier level of service.
