The legit; non-TOS violating reason for the higher one's is VoD. The
average HD VoD stream is about 14 meg. The average SD VoD stream is
about 4 meg. With the 20/5, (if you have more than one HD settop) you
can't watch more than one HD VoD stream at a time.

The problem with Comcast and Verizon residential service comes when
you try and host servers on that line, and violate your TOS. I mean do
you really need 50/20 if you aren't hosting servers. Sure it's nice,
but you should really switch to a business account if you want to host
servers at home. The main difference at least for Comcast is you have
to sign a cell phone like contract. Don't know about Verizon.
I have the 50/12 at my apartment, I see the correct download speed,
upload is lacking even from their speed test site. Mostly likely it's
a number of factors, new spec(bugs), the channel is lacking or maxed
out, and distance(hops) to the Comcast network border.
The DOCSIS 3.x modem they give you has Gig Copper ports and I'm
running all Gig Ports on my boxes/v-boxes.
