I was wondering if there is really a difference in having more connections? I have 4 now and I always max out my connection. Is there something I am missing that some news services are now offering 20 connections? (newsdemon)
There is always a limit on a connection, so if you can't max out your speed with 1 connection you will need to use more. 20 connections seems like an overkill though, but maybe it is needed for 100 mbit or higher.
