Re: And it may kill cable too said by xenophon:If those channels allow streaming to hardware based players, I won't need cable TV anymore. Cable/Sat must be nervous about this as streaming is clearly the future, not broadcasting when we want to watch things, or forcing us to subscribe to channels we don't want. TWC doesn't want you to cut the cord... so they want to have the cap to keep you from "not needing" cable TV anymore. In the Comcast HSI Forum Bandwidth Thread, it's been shown that the 250GB cap has nothing to do with addressing congestion. Instead, it's about preventing these competitive hardware based players from establishing a foothold.
