I have 10 gig at home, and powerful enough networking hardware that can take advantage of it (Ubiquiti stuff)
Nothing can ever saturate the line. So it's great for aggregate, but that's it
Same, I got 10gbit because there was some competition early with fiber getting wider. Now my same provider has slower offers at lower prices but I don't mind the extra bandwidth in the case I would need it and I have a grandfathered offer so pay the same as 1gbit.
Paying the same rate is certainly an instance where it makes since. Plus, you can show off to friends!
