Would be great to get 2x as much for less.
FYI - 100 mbps is serious overkill for 99.9% of us. Paying for anything more is just paying the cable company for something you will never use!
We can easily run 2 tv’s, 2 iPads, 2 iPhones at the same time without issue. And our visiting graphic artist daughter sending/receiving very large data files all day. Won’t ever come close to using up our bandwidth with just our 100 mbps service.
Think of it this way. There’s a reason our home water & gas line are the small size they are. To put anything bigger would just be major overkill.
So yes, 100 mbps is more than enough for a household. Anything more and you are just wasting your money to the cable company.
