I use NTL cable and currently subscribe to a 1MBit/s service. I do know a chap who uses NTL's 10Mbit/s and he claims he gets around 6Mbit/s. Overall bit rate depends upon the far server and all routers etc along the way subject to lowest common denominator.
I used to pay £37.99 for 3Mbit/s and now use greater speed as a saving rather than performance, 1Mbit/s costs £17.99 and is perfectly acceptable.
