'"Data expands to fill the available space", its true of RAM, its true of disk storage, its true of bandwidth....'nuff said.'

But filling the pipe completely is still a problem. Same as filling up all the RAM or HDD space.

I'm sorry, your logical response can not be accepted, we all must put on our hats and wait for the imminent meltdown of the internet.

Have these people forgotten about all the MILES of dark fiber that exist NOW!

FIOS has PLENTY of bandwidth to go around NOW and with the GPON upgrade, they will have an even larger pipe to your home to use.

4:20 into the video...makes you wonder what they have been smokin'

As I remember, the Internet (notice the capital I) has been doomed to meltdown several times in the past and it hasn't come to pass yet.

There has been one of those rules of thumb that computer guys have known since the COBOL days. "Data expands to fill the available space", its true of RAM, its true of disk storage, its true of bandwidth....'nuff said.
