In the Uk, we used to have 2MB DSL, and business providers like myself would happily provide it on the basis of CBR 2Mbit and we did'nt care what you did with it.  2Mbit is more than enough for streaming and I challenge anyone otherwise.

Then consumer broadband came along, the subs went down, the headline speeds went up, service delivery becomes impossible in the face of the marketing BS ---- and here we are.

If the subs pay £30 to £45 rather than £10 to £15 then this entire issue disappears.  I don't give a frig what my hosted clients do or my access clients do, they can run at line rate, I want then to get every paid for bit in the best fashion it can be delivered.  The problem is the access industry has allowed their sales and marketing people to put them in a point of no return.
