Re: Cable companies need to wake up said by NOCMan:I agree. Music downloads, web surfing, online radio, video games, Movie rentals from Itunes range from 600M to over 6G. Backing up all my digital media online would put me over a terabit. So you're telling me it would take me several months to download all of it. That limit would severely limit innovation on the internet. Shit, I forgot about 3rd party online backup. Yep, that would set me over the 1TB limit as well.

Then I guess you would need to pay the extra cost to back it up or find a better and more affordable solution.
I personally would recommend a good backup tape, raid 5 drives, or a mirrored drive setup. | |

I have a sufficient local backup setup, similar to what you're suggesting that works fine for me. I just know some less than PC literate people I know prefer to use online backups, in lieu of locally managed storage. For them, as Comcast users, they would have a problem.
