when somebody invests to provide it and you pay to receive it.

Perhaps the OP could run a pair over to the Normandy coastline and get
his 20mb that way? Or perhaps he could move to one of the few areas of
France where such speeds are actually available at the moment?

ISP's are actually not allowed to offer these speeds in the UK over ADSL at
the moment for regulatory reasons.

Its expected they will be allowed later this year.

However, if your exchange has not been LLU'ed yet (which means 4 and 8MB
services are available now), you will have a slightly longer wait..

Of course, you could always ask your cable company (assuming you have one) -
there is nothing to stop them offering faster speeds now.

Think he's refering to France as ADSL coverage in Britain is very good.

24Mbit ?? How much is that then ?

Coverage might be but speed is definatly not, UK in the back water of
technology yet again. Why are we so damn slow with all this ?
