Re: Only for bundles? 4 hours per day is hard how exactly?
Oh right, lets try it this way. Standard month, 8 days of weekend. 6 hours each day on the weekend (while doing work around the house, etc, whatever) + 3 hours a night on a weeknight (maybe after dinner) suddenly doesn't sound as unreasonable does it?
Oh wait, this assumes you do absolutely nothing with the internet else at all, huh? As you noted, there are other things that can make a big diff. Let's try higher def streams, lets go for 6mbps, because we need to include audio.
On the flip side, I think usage might be a not less for non power users because it's a browser window so people will a)not use it because it'll probably use silverlight and b) close out the tab as it will bog down their pc |

| Again, people with TV Everywhere will already have cable TV service. So they'll only be watching TV Everywhere content on a computer screen. While your numbers are reasonable (except the bitrate; my figure already included audio and was on the high side anyhow) they assume that people will replace $10-a-month set top boxes with $500 PCs without CableCard tuners to view their content. Which is a fallacy. |

| Actually, I agree with what you are saying here, but I think the service kind of implies it/hopefully shows Comcast where they could provide additional benefits/services to customers.
I realized I sounded kind of ad hominem, so I apologize in advance if it did to you.
It's all up to the implementation and what they do; maybe we could be completely wrong and comcast will actually do a decent job? who knows. |
