I beg to differ with you.
I get download speeds over 100 Mbps regularly.  A lot of download speed
is dependent on the site being downloaded from's upload speed.
Also, having very high speed internet allows for streaming on multiple
devices.  Like when my wife watching something on the Roku TV and I'm in
a zoom meeting.

 My Internet varies between 700Mbps and 950Mbps.  I don't miss analog
 modem days in the least.  There is no nostalgia there.
 
 How ever the people  still use them. Fast internet is only good about
 1? km from
 the router. Other than Netflix or Multiplayer games, what is really
 high speed internet needed for?
