Sure, I changed the premise a bit there.  There's a reason to not aspire to unachievable things, though: your potential can do a LOT if you aim it in the right places.  Castles in the sky never get built.  To me, the "one hour to internet" really just says "do the important stuff".  With that in mind, I may find that just doing the important stuff, but whenever I want, wouldn't take as much bandwidth as what I do now.

I had a hard time keeping to under 1 hours a day in 1987 (my university grades are testament to this). Today it is infeasible.
