To amigo_boy, ... What's your point?
I was just responding to the assertion that all bandwidth is equal. That's not true. Even torrent users apply traffic shaping via QoS because they don't want their torrents disrupting their own interactive applications.

I see nothing wrong with applying the same common sense further upstream. Maybe ISPs aren't doing that in the best way. I don't know what they do, or what the alternatives are. But, just claiming that all bandwidth is equal is incorrect.

To the ISP, yes it should be as they should be nothing but the dumbpipes they are passing packets along the network.

The rest will work itself out with the law of physics, congestion, and consumers willingness to deal with it.
