Porn ...You would certainly not be uploading it (legally).

Explain please...I still don't see how you could legally upload porn (or anything) at 1gbps. The only way I could dream of such speeds is from seeding a large torrent or running an old-school fileserv on IRC. Neither of which are legal.

(with the rare exception of a legal torrent...which is most likely not popular enough to max out your 1gbps anyways)

So you're saying porn stars don't want fast Internet speeds?

MyFreeCams in HD would be awesome.

This is a Gbps LOCAL build. If these people run a speedtest to a server a few hundred miles away, theyll probably get 50Mbps. You are talking like this project will change the world, its not changing ANYTHING. People in KC will be able to CAM in 3D among each other, thats about it.

I always hear this distance argument, and it's always complete bullshit. I see my full 150 Mbps on FiOS to servers in California and Europe all the time.

It's all about using the right type of file transmission protocols and multiple connections. Distance affects ping, not speed - unless you're connecting to servers in a country with really shitty Internet connectivity. There don't tend to be many of them, because hosting companies don't tend to set up shop in countries with shitty Internet connectivity.
