Debating The Broadband 'Piracy Tax' > ...

...

I do not download or buy music and I definately do not want to pay a tax for it. Although, the price sounds like a fair price for those that do, atleast for now.

So lets say they start taxing everyone the $5 fee or offering it voluntarily, what will happen next? I am guessing the ISP's will start increasing their prices due to increased bandwith usage, so in the long run we all get hammered anyways?!

I think one way or the other bandwidth needs are going to increase regardless of the music. Even webpages will continue to increase in megabytes. 10 or 20 years from now I wouldn't be surprised if they are measured in gigabytes.
