50 MBit/s VDSL.
Is it a German reaction to think: Hey, 50MBit is not that bad?
I still remember when 150KiB/s was what we had as a child. It was very usable for the small amounts of data we needed back then.
Seeing it written as MBit/s feels so wrong to me, I read it as MB/s at first then I realized it's Mb/s.
