For me, the big win is everything being snappy and never having contention on my Internet connection. Maybe I could do with 500Mbps up and down just fine instead of a gigabit but I almost never hit the limits of my connection and that’s an amazing place to be. When I do hit the limits, it’s when I’m downloading a huge file and I’m very grateful for the speeds I have.

I’m not the first one to say this, but often it seems that faster Internet speeds have enabled completely new use-cases and applications that sometimes weren’t even obvious until a critical mass of people had the faster speeds.
