Just as a matter of interest where do you get the information that the
average user has a 3.9 MB/s path to the Internet?

First, I should have specified the average *U.S.* user, and in so
doing realized how dumbly "own-nation-centric" that was.  My
apologies.  But I got it from this:

You're confusing megabits with megabytes. The article says the average in the US is 3.9Mb/s, which is only 0.41MB/s. Still seems high to me, but I have no statistics.
