I'd try to figure out WHERE the BottleNeck really is.
On PAPER, 20meg is about 10x what you need for FLAC or ALAC files.
I get VIDEO at that speed which even compressed by the sender uses more bandwidth than music.
And NO pauses for buffering.
Too much is never enough

and try to figure out why U-Verse has speed glitches certain times a day and is intermittent start/stop most of the time or save $40 a month for a service 50X faster with no monthly cap?Tough decision there!
Again, everyone on my block that has U-Verse is making the switch because they are experiencing the same crappy performance and we're saving money as well.
The folks on our street who watch a lot of TV have Comcast with close to 100 Mbps down but they are seeing rate hikes.
I don't have a TV package with U-Verse so it's all upside to me.
Did I mention no monthly cap with SONIC Fiber?

100 Mbps is for 'bragging rights'. Unless you are running a large online business (with STATIC IP)
or have 10 people living there ALL with their OWN TV and online services, simply NO Need for such thruput.
Now, an arguement can be made for higher speeds going the OTHER WAY. 2 Mbps UPLOAD might not be enough especially for active photographers or somebody who backs up a 200gb hard drive on a regular basis to the 'cloud'.

I believe his previous ISP was the bottleneck. ;-)
