| WSJ also full of BS? I'm a bit dissapointed with DSLReports / BBR.
I submitted a copy of a Wall Street Journal article entitled "The Coming Exaflood" posted on 1/20/07, written by Bret Swanson as a likely News piece of interest to this forum.
Dunno' if copyright issues were a gating factor.
The issue of bandwidth - and the attendant hand wringing about "net neutrality" - discussed the current success of YouTube and likely high demand for more video on demand via the Internet.
Thus causing an "Exa-Flood" of digital bandwidth demand.
At those levels of bandwidth usage, I guess it maybe time to grow up from the one price for everybody service plans to plans that factor in some pricing per GB?
Else, pay for it via the advertising / commercials / user's time to view ads model?
Double and triple the price of single pricing plans for everybody?
Who and how does additional bandwidth capacity get paid for?
