In the Netherlands there's a few ISPs offering 4Gb and one even 8Gb iirc. Personally can't really think of a use case for that though.

Realistically with my 1Gb connection, it’s always the outside restricting speeds. I seem to get the speed I pay for but every download or stream is throttled

Steam downloads consistently saturate my 1 Gbps connection, but it's still fast enough for me. Had it a year now, still not really used to things going that fast.
