| I'll take my network and go home. You people wanted Ma Bell dead. You wanted free unregulated telephone. Now you all moan and bitch that you want regulation. Regulate it and it won't get built. It is dollars and cents children, when you all move out of your parents house and get a job you will realize there is no free lunch. |

| I for one would love a faster pipe to sites like netflix, google video, and torrents as long as it dont cost ME more I can care less what billion dollar Google or Yahoo thinks |

I'm not paying Charter $70 a month for 10 Mbps speed then only getting 1/10 of that because I'm not paying some access fee to Google or YouTube or ESPN.com. Is ISPs like Charter don't want to expand capacity and their serivce slows down I'll switch to Bellsouth and vise versa. We'll see how they like not getting ANY money. Money talks and in the end if people can get acceptable internet for the price they'll swicth or do without. I fail to beleive that ISP are that stupid not to realize that.
If thier failure to expand capacity leas to speed close to dial-up then I'll switch back to dial-up for $10 a month. When enough peole do that then the stupid ISPs will have loads of capcity and no customers. Good luck with that. And any customer that would still shell out $50 or more for dial-up speed to cable or telecos no matter what, deserves to be ripped off. |

I see capping of usage before that would happen or pay per bit. Cable companies will have to do something before Telephone companies because of the shared network. I like pay per bit as 5% of the users use 40% of the service. Sorry no free lunch. |

That's a whole other issue than to make Google pay for their backbone increase. Which Google won't really pay they'll get the money back somehow and that somehow will end up costing me. Think about it. Charter charges ESPN.com the ESPN in turn charges Charter more per subscriber to get that money back then Charter raises my rates to pay ESPN. |
