    Ok. Forget price. A 2mbps connection does just fine for watching youtube. What is a 50,000mbps connection going to do for me when my internet activity is so minimal?

      You could watch two YouTube films at once. (No but seriously 2Mb/s is too low even for just YouTube. YouTube recommends 20Mb/s. And that’s probably assuming 30hz. So you probably actually want at double or more. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/78358)

        Additionally, Dolby recommends at least 50Mbps for 4K/HDR. Streaming services pretend they aren’t listening though.

      You don’t need to pose that question because you aren’t getting a 50,000mbps connection, as you’re not in China.
