Re: I think it's interesting...

So I wonder what you think of my directv dvr that uses my broadband connection to download VOD...should Comcast be able to throttle them also?

That's a different scenario as it's a finite transfer. Once you've downloaded that content you don't download it anymore. Vuze will upload content to other Vuze members indefinitely as long as you have the application open.

Fixed duration transfers are not the problem. P2P apps that will consume whatever pipe you have 24x7 are a different story.
