Re: why would i want fibre optic.?

I find fibre good for a family with several people all wanting to use the internet at the same time.
One of the reasons that PlusNet has a range of products is that not everyone has the same requirements (or budget).

Re: why would i want fibre optic.?

I think you've made this point on a couple of threads recently. It depends on what you use your internet for. If you were streaming HD video you could use a couple of Gb or so in an hour. Why not pop down to the Chit-chat board, start a thread and have a chat about it with all of them on there..

I spoke with my parents about this at the weekend.
