Maybe leaky feeder cables will become the norm, running along the walls/ceilings of all new build homes? But assuming a wired connection within the premises for a moment, and that we get 1Gbps over that wired connection, because we all have FTTH: For the question of "does it make any difference (1Gbps/10Gbps instead of 100Mbps)": If I download a 4K movie to watch it should take an order of magnitude less time at 1Gbps than 100Mbps. Or even when streaming, my player will fetch a video chunk/segment that is typically in the 3-10 seconds range, I would fetch each chunk much quicker, and so my ISPs connection spends more time idle, which means their backbone carries a higher volume of traffic for a smaller period of time. There is some benefit to be had in the balance of a user consuming X Mbps across the backbone for Y seconds or X^2 Mbps but for Y/10 seconds. It expect it would affect oversubscription and content ratios. Cheers, James.
