Re: Might as well just go back to dial up said by viperpa33s:Billing by the byte would not be a good idea cause having the internet would be to expensive to use for a lot of people. To expensive even for the people who only use the internet just for web browsing and emails. You mean too expensive like other metered services such as electricity, oil, gas, water, cell phone, etc.? said by viperpa33s:Video streaming, sending home movies, , video downloading, sending pictures, playing online games will be all to expensive to do if you bill by the byte. I am sure no one will want a $300 - $500 internet bill. Unless the ISPs want to go broke from the attrition of customers, I seriously doubt the normal user doing the things that you referenced will ever see a bill anywhere close to $300.
Eke, the sky is falling. |
