I can't remember if it was you who mentioned it, but I tried using Speedtest and it doesn't use as much data as I would have hoped. I tried watching YouTube TV and streaming Apple Lossless music to drive up my usage when I'm in the US, but that still feels like a lot of work. Are there any gigantic files that I can download to make this nice and easy? Downloading a 25GB file whenever I'm in the US will be awesome, but I am not aware of any.
