"...And also in most cases people doing massive downloading on what is an ever increasing debate of legality..."
Yes, I agree, but this will not necessarily be the case in a very short time. Soon, people will be legally downloading 720p HD movies from Web sites like the iTunes store, and we'll need the bandwidth to download whatever we need or want. In some cases, people will be replacing services they once received from the cable companies, which are used to operating like monopolies (which is going to have to change). Let's face it, bandwidth and Internet speeds in the U.S. are slow compared to some other nations. Our nation is technologically behind, and the Cable TV industry's very slow conversion from analog-to-digital is part of the reason why. |
