| Yup. Honestly, I'm not bothered by my speeds at all, even if I'm "slower than 62% of Canada". My old connection was significantly faster (15mbps I think), but I haven't noticed a difference at all. Actually I feel like this slower connection has been more consistent, whereas the old connection would sometimes be faster and sometimes significantly slower. Slow and steady is winning the race for me. Any slower and I'm sure I would start to notice, though, so I do feel bad for the slower guys. .5mbps on cable seems unbelievable to me, although the local cable ISP company was selling a 1mbps plan until just recently.

Youtube is unusable, so is hulu.
It is bad when you show up as slower than 97.7% of the world. (I have)
