No worries there, eh? | |

No worries there, eh? And who wants most to get their hands on that bandwidth? The television broadcasters, who have been seeing their viewer numbers slip, every year, as High-Speed Internet service becomes more ubiquitous.
The perfect solution for them would be to make sure that the only content available is their content, and they are willing to throw money at that dream. It would turn the internet into The New Cable TV.
And if you think that the present democratized internet and a Broadcast TV internet can co-exist, especially in the eyes of the broadcasters and the infrastructure providers, who have a knee-jerk aversion to infratructure investment, you got another thing coming. | |
