Current Comcast High-Speed Internet subscribers will see an increase in their current internet speeds with the launch of DOCSIS 3.0. of up to 16 Mbps download/2 Mbps upload. However, in reality, of course, it is limited by the host server and the path to my house and FTV is comparable to other sites in that respect. Only Kink.com has considerably faster transfer rates. Now, that speed would be throttled by Comcast if I exceed my usage limits for the month. With all the downloading of videos I do - I am on several sites - I do not come close to that limit.
By the way, with the launch of DOCSIS 3.0, Comcast will also be offering two new levels of speed service:

Ultra 22 Mbps download/5 Mbps upload (up to 30 Mbps/7 Mbps with PowerBoost)
Extreme 50 50 Mbps download/10 Mbps upload

Imagine that.
