Re: they aren't going after the legal stuff

said by odog:

by a large for every appleTV user or Hulu user.... you've probably got 100+ hardcore BT users eating 100+GB per month.
What I find ironic is that ISPs have been putting up with bandwidth-hostile P2P applications that are predominantly used for piracy for almost a decade now. When Napster first came out, I thought for sure that all those PCs maxing out their upload around the clock would surely prompt ISPs to start charging by the byte to put a stop to it. Didn't happen.

Now, that we're finally getting reasonable, legal repalcements for those activities (DRM-free music and legal online video rental), they're cracking down on bandwidth usage.
