Re: strange

said by BK See Profile :

so they want people to innovate ways to compress data better so it doesn't use as much bandwidth to send the same thing...

..but why don't they just innovate ways to get more bandwidth. fiber or something?
well, they're kind of half right

go back in time 15-20 years and see the kind of stuff that companies were doing to cram as much data as they could across the 56k lines that were prevelant then

don't get me wrong, I think it's still just an excuse right now, but there is a grain of truth to it
