I ditched HFC for 4G some months ago. Ovo (Optus) and now Optus retail thanks to their generous data allowances. Teamed up with a mate down the road, packaged our connections and data pools, and now we get 120/40Mbps with 475GB allowance and costs just only marginally more than only one of us used to pay.
Of course, 4G isn't for everyone, especially out of metro areas, but it is a viable alternative now.
