Sky Standard broardband or fiber?

I'm not sure which broardband to choose, I currently have sky fiber and I'm not sure what difference there would be compared to the standard broardband. I've separated from my partner so I'm able to sign up to sky as a new customer with the offer that is available. There is only me using it and I watch quite a few movies so I can't decide which one would be best. How much slower would it be do you think?

Check the speed you're likely to get from standard broadband. If it's at least 10Mbps you should be ok with that if there's only you. Streaming HD needs around 5Mbps.0

After seeing them speeds I think your right. Having fibre already it would probably be a big difference changing to standardThe best things in life are for FREE!!!If you like what you see and find this info useful, please use the thanks button. It costs nothing and means so much.0 -
I've found not only fibre to be faster, but more reliable, very rare it disconnects at all compared to ADSL0
