LOL @ "downloading a full movie in mere seconds" quite the legitimate use case for such bandwidth! :)

  Typically this will be some sort of medical [imaging] business, with some errant technician barely utilizing any capacity (long-term basis). One of my "actually legitimate" uses of EPB Fiber (as an individual end-user) is hosting a bitcoin supernode, which is essentially a non-mining "verifyer of record" which allows other nodes to upload all-day-long. With me throttling locally to 10Mbps (specific to bitcoin blockchain upload traffic, only), we have mutual peace (and I am constantly maintaining >100 connections at pings as low as 3ms (typical non-fiber is >25ms; typical newnode is >80ms). All other fiber connections, worldwide, are single-digit-?ms.
