Re: Who should pay for network upgrades... Even the bit torrent author stated it used a ton of bandwidth.
He said he was working on a less bandwidth intensive version to compromise with his corporate investors.
The pirate versions and their improvements are still going to be out there from when it was open source.
At least the legal users will be able to sleep at night knowing they aren't hogging up the bandwidth of their ISP 
P2P is just a hint of whats to come with HD On Demand.
The infrastructure needs to be built to be able to handle that demand as well as other future and current technology.
The public bonds, matched by state and fed programs can do it. It's already working to put fiber networks in some states.
With the people involved in the process, we wouldn't have to lose whats left of our local CLEC's. And some big company wouldn't be the only access in town worth beans ...
