Question for all you techie types: what would you expect to pay for unlimited, unrestricted 8Mb/s broadband?

That's without any transfer caps and without any artificial throttling.

Edit: I'm looking at ADSL, so that's 8Mb/s down and around 1Mb/s up. A symmetric line is much too expensive for what I want.

$40-$80/month, depending on the agreement associate with it. If it's of the 'no servers, no treating it like a real internet connection' residential style service, towards the low end. If it's business class, I might even go as high as $100.

But that's in the US.

£15 /month through Sky (in addition to £18.50 /month for TV).

A$150 per month. Although that's with 384kbit/s up, not 1Mbit/s. If you want to settle with a 30Gbyte limit, then you get what I have at A$84/month. If you live in a place where the infrastructure wasn't monopolised by Helstra, then you could get better speed and limits for A$40/month.

Oh wait, you're not in Ostraya.
