Would subscribing to Adelphia's "Premier High-Speed Internet" be worth it?

I'm about to move into a new apartment and I have a choice between regular and faster cable service. For $15 more a month, I would be getting up to 6 Mbps as opposed to 4 Mbps and uploading is doubled from up to 384 Kbps to 768 Kbps. There is also free web hosting and greater email capacity, but I don't really care about that.

Have you guys had any experience with the faster service? How do they achieve this faster speed anyway? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
 
I had premier service at my old business, it was super great. I knew the network admins, so we had more upload than 768kbps, but it was very quick. They provide the faster service by uncapping your service -- the speeds you get are not maxed out at all, but are instead artificially limited by Adelphia. I enjoyed it overall - downloading things was fun. Gaming was hit or miss for us here in Colorado because the latency is kinda mediocre (70-100ms everywhere), but other than that it was superb.

Is it worthwhile for home us? No. 3mbps should be plenty.
