Plenty of people are PAYING for 25 Mbps (or faster) NBN connections, but they aren't actually GETTING 25 Mbps (especially in peak periods, which is when most people sit down to watch Netflix).

E.g. look at Exfso's post from 20 October:
I was signed up for a 100/40 connection and off peak was getting around 95/37,(am only 150metres from node), but come 7pm till around 11pm I got speeds approaching dial up, eg 3/.6.
Try watching Netflix HD on THAT sort of connection!
