    I recently moved to a place with fiber and paid out the ass for gigabit. I just got a new game on Steam that was 130GB, and it downloaded in about 30-35 minutes. Insanity.

      Yeah fiber so so good, I pay like $22 each month for 500 mbps. It’s a bit expensive so I don’t dare go for full gig

      I once had a full gig fiber connection for free in my student apartment, it was glorious. Before that I had like 50 mbps so it’s hard to go back to that after the full gig

          It’s cheap? Well call me ignorant or uninformed then.

          But no it’s just the internet plan with a discount of $11 per month because my apartment complex has some deal with the internet provider.

            Well I guess it depends on your Country/State, the cheapest fiber in my area is $50 for 500mbps
