Sure is. ComCast has a 2 Mbps speed-boost that you can pay $9.95 per month,
for, as well, and that was REALLY nice. I decided to swap it out for a
DVR, though, since I (at this time) don't have the ability to set up a
MythTV box or anything like that, and the girlfriend really doesn't like
missing her shows (like House...)
However, when I had that, I was downloading from most major sites at around
1 MiB/sec. Very, very nice.
