Re: Lay FTTH Are you suggesting IPTV? If so I do not think they would do that as they would no longer be able to have caps, it would violate net neutrality. A costumer could only watch like 100GB of hulu or youtube, but could watch all the TW internet video they wanted so IF they went all IPTV and had a cap they would be crushed under lawsuits. |

Racine, WI | With fios they can deliver 1Gbps lines to everyone and sell on demand tv, to hell with the constant broadcast. the distrobution chokes go away quite quickly when everyone just watches whatever show they want to whenever they want to.
They either do that or will be eaten alive by online services.
Even Ala Carte networks aren't worth it, take scifi for example, I watched Eureka and Battle Star Galactica, nothing else in the last 3 years on ther network, Comedy Central? Only Colbert and Daily Show, South Park isn't funny anymore and none of ther other shows where ever funny. Discovery/science channel? now that I actually watch a bit on, between Mythbusters, Doing Da Vinci and Time Warp with a sprinkling of their weekly specials.
I don't watch much else and nor does anyone else that lives here, yet its download or pay for a service their that actually has all of the channels we watch, which you guessed it, is only their most expensive tier due to how they disperse the channels. |
