I think we should compare amperage of average electrical services and
diameter of municipal water pipes. Oh yeah, don't forget to compare how
many cable TV channels are available in each country....we don't want to
fall behind on any of these important demographics.
100 meg cable is available in my town, so people could raise the average
speed test result by simply buying more speed. Generally if we offer
multiple packages, then the overwhelming majority of people buy the
cheapest one; so maybe the US is really above average at being cheap.
We should focus on what we're good at and stop envying our neighbors'
phalli mbps.
</sarcasm>
The social and economic advantages of having internet service are
realized with 1 or 2 mbps. After that it's all entertainment, so why do
we stress over it?
