There is no fixed answer to this.
The speed offered by an ISP may not be the speed available to your location due to connectivity issues.
The cost is another issue. If you wish to purchase an OC (optical circuit) 192 you will have approximately 10 Gbps. Your cost per month for this service will be well over $20,000 per month but you can get it from most telephone carriers. It is probably the fastest.
Now for the reasonable answer for someone like you must include affordability.
Typically you must look at what is available. Often DSL (Digital Subscriber Link from the phone company) can rival CATV (comunity area t v or cable tv fed Internet) at similar prices if both are available. However, often only one of these is availbe.
You must check your location to see what is there and what it costs. Then you must ask yourself what you need. Purchasing the fastest at the highest cost when you can easily use a lesser and cheaper solution is foolish.
For home I would suggest getting roadrunner. It is cheap and reliable. But, if your running a server you need dedicated speeds. I currently run a OC3 which gives me 54mbps however it cost me, $15,000 a month. But, I use it to run several servers.
