I think that you should be required to post what you pay for your connection, and what type it is...
On that note...
I pay $35/mo for my cable connection.
Here are mine from both Speakeasy and Speedtest.net; they're pretty consistent.

Japan YahooBB, ADSL. I didn't choose the highest speed offered simply because I didn't believe it would really make much difference. DSL and ADSL are both distance sensitive, so buying the higher bandwidth, more expensive package is often times a waste of money -- you can't go faster than what your distance from the DSLAM allows.

I hope everyone remembers, that these speed tests do not measure sustained throughput.
If you want to see what your DL speed truly is, then you can try this.
Go to the Apple website and DL Mac OS 9.2.1 North American update. It is 82MB in size. Time how long it takes to DL this file from the Apple website.
Here would be my speed criteria:
Reasonable --> 3 minutes or less
Decent --> 1 minute or less
Fast --> 10 seconds or less
BTW, my friend's service was FTTH (100Mbps) which averaged 9 seconds, with the fastest being 7 seconds and the slowest being 12 seconds. Cost was $40 per month.
I have cheap ADSL which costs me about $25 per month. I just DL'ed the file in under 1 minute -- about 58 seconds.
That is good enough for me and worth the price. I could upgrade to faster ADSL (VDSL) service, but it would cost me about $45 per month. Unfortunately, in my area, I cannot get FTTH.
Oh, and the speed tests never give an accurate reading of my actual speed.

Yeah Trujillo made Telstra even worse ... if that's possible.
Telstra broadband being cheaper than Telstra ADSL is a little advertised fact since they're managed as separate depts. Their ADSL dept will anything to keep you from switching over to broadband.
I switched to broadband because my ADSL2 speeds sucked. With broadband I get the advertised max 1Mbs up but more like 10Mbs down. After over 1yr I'm still paying $89.95. In fact, the first 6 months of a new contract or moving over from ADSL you get 50% off. I made the switch last year.

Yeah, I prefer Internode over Telstra, but unfortunately ADSL2 still runs over Telstra's outdated cabling before it hits Internode's DSLAM's so ADSL2 doesn't work for me. Only with cable broadband was I able to see decent speeds. I'll gladly leave Telstra broadband if Internode had broadband in my area.

wish we had cable in our area, but even if we did get it the speeds would be around 20mBit, so hardly an upgrade at all.. i just want more data and faster upload speeds!!! 1Mbps upload is PATHETIC.

hhhmm that is fairly expensive i guess, but for the download speed and the data its unbelievable.
the biggest downloads i have seen is from a company called TPG, at 200gb/ADSL2+. the problem is you get 60gb on peak (9am-4am) and 120gb offpeak (4am-9am). basically gives you 5 hours a day to download a massive load of stuff. RIDICULOUS!
they charge AU$80 ($65CA) per month, and of course in this rip off of a country both downloads AND uploads count towards your usage. oh and you get capped to 64k/64k when you go over :)

I am on O2 Broadband "Access" in the UK. This is O2's broadband product for people who live outwith their ADSL2+ coverage area, and it is provided over the standard British Telecom ADSL network.
The advertised speed is "up to 8mbit/sec" and I do (at the correct times) see speeds of up to about 7mbit/sec.
Performance in the last few weeks though has been terrible. In the evenings it can drop below 1mbit/sec, which I really think is not on.
If anyone from the UK is reading this, please visit Sam Knows (http://www.samknows.com/broadband/search.php) and enter your town name, post code or telephone number. On the right you will see a table which lists "LLU Operator Presence". These are the providers who have installed their equipment in your local telephone exchange. By going with them you usually get much better performance (many of them are ADSL2+ instead of ADSL) and much lower monthly fees.
Unfortunately for me though:

Some of the speeds above are ridiculous. But I have to wonder, at what point does it just not matter any more because the servers you are connecting to just don't upload that fast. Like, my speed is double what it was last year (via Speedtest.net), but I've noticed little increase in download speeds from most places.

Don't complain. Where I live, there is only dial-up or ISDN (yes, ISDN). Or I suppose satellite.
Work, however.. well, this might hurt a little.

They limit it intentionally to discourage seeding torrents.

Not bad. The router is saying 21.8Mbit, and I have a few background internet apps running on the network that will be pulling some bandwidth.
Really tempted to try out the work connection at 3am though. Despite what people say about the NHS, when the hospital is empty of staff the internet truly flies - I've seen 60MB/sec downloads.

It's supposed to be 6000 kb/s down. I don't mind that it's a little slower than advertised after recently coming from an area where DSL or cable wasn't available. My only choice was fixed wireless and it was an absolute nightmare to use.
