| Not happening This is not going to happen, mainly because it screws up the ISP business model with no payback for them. If the customer reaches the "third strike" who loses the revenue - the MPAAS or the ISP? Is the MPAA going to pay the cost of running this monitoring system? Is the MPAA going to get the ISP to impose a license fee and then not share it? Can triple play companies still charge hefty PPV fees when the users can just download the content legally?
Just too many downsides for the ISP industry without any discernable upside. It is all about distribution; the ISP has it and the MPAA does not. It sucks to be them. |
