It's not dramatically more expensive than their gigabit - and presumably they think those who must have the best will pay for it.
I'm not so sure. Ignoring alt nets, are the costs of providing a gigabit service really triple the cost of a ~100Mb service from a budget operator down the same Openreach line?
Are the benefits of such a service really worth that to a large number of people?
I note that EE (and others) deliberately conflate added speed benefit and wifi performance, I wonder how much of these gigabit style services is sold on a mistaken premise.
