100 MB broadband - what to do with it?

    Well lads, I have 100mbps broadband but it just doesn't seem like I'm using it to it's full potential.

    Torrents' speeds are determined by the number of seeders (for downloading poetry, of course) and not the connection, and I've heard of Usenet (again for poetry) but you need to pay for a server etc.

    So, is there anything I can do online with a connection of this speed?

    (awaits AH answers with anticipation ;) and also hopefully someone can help too).

    Thanks!

    Truth be know mate ... such speeds are only offered so one can download :) so download to your hearts content :) Instead of getting the regular sized blu-ray (1.5gb) Get the whole blu-ray movie :)

    Why not try to make money online? I would if I had such a connection. Like try and become a youtube partner. Or download obscure 80s tv shows and sell them on dvd on certain sites (people actually do that while still remaining under the radar)
