When a game I play drops its monthly 30 gigabyte patch, and it downloads in 5 minutes rather than 50 minutes or more, I find it to have plenty enough of a point.
You could argue that waiting an hour once a month is not that much of a hurdle, sure, but in my judgement it is. I like this. I wish it could go even faster. I'm so happy that the era of waiting a substantial amount of time for data transfer is just ~not a thing anymore.
Though a gigabit subscription here is dirt cheap and always has been, so that helps too.
