Yes. They stole march on Sky for that, senior people here not happy. You must have fibre though, if not going over satalite. The amount of data required is a quite large.

Yes thers is no chance of us getting 4k down our phone line. None! At All!

Any thoughts on how much band width is needed though? :-\ I guess a hard drive box and some buffering might be involved at our particular address? ;D

I think at least 30mbs will be required, ie basic infinity speeds  :y

I'm sure they can manage that to the box at the top of the road. But it won't make it to the house. ...its downhill as well. ::) ;D :D
