THEY SHOULD'VE GIVEN IT TO LYNCH

Death to the Seahawks. Death to Seahawks posters.
Cloud services are also getting more and more prominent and will continue to do so, necessitate faster internet for all kinds of services (remote access, storage, etc). Also, basically everyone takes tons of high-res digital photos now, and with the proliferation of dSLRs, GoPros, and other HD content people are sharing, demand for fast upload speeds is going up in a hurry. Even with 5meg upload, putting a 10 minute 1080p video on youtube or uploading a batch of photos from an event takes a long time – especially if you want to do it during the day and continue to use the internet for other tasks. 4K is well on its way too – again, with GoPro and dSLR video both featuring the ability to produce it and now televisions, the 5K iMac, and even cellphones offering displays capable of utilizing it. 1080p is going to become the minimum expected res very, very soon. I seriously don't get the bizarre backlash people here have to suggesting that we should improve web speed and access. You claim there are no examples and then when people offer them, the goalposts may as well be on wheels.
