duh

s/use/pull

ie
"The average CVC capacity acquired per user has increased by almost 10
per cent during the quarter. This includes an average increase for
each broadband service from around one Mbps to 1.09 Mbps."

That is the amount of CVC bought by retail service providers to
service those customers. It isn't what they actually pull and Paul was
actually talking about business customers not residential (for the
most part) consumers.

Very different things...

Remember in many cases the smallest throughput will quench demand back
to that level.

Oh for the days of Erlangs when all this was easily predictable.
