said by zod5000:Here in Canada they just introduced something called Super HD. To get the newer higher quality streams, your ISP needs to make a peering arrangement with netflix (so they would have direct networks and not use internet bandwidth).
It's a mixed bag which ISPs are adopting it. Understandably a few see Netflix as a threat.
It's available here too. It was covered recently here when
TW didn't like the idea very much.
It's funny watching the ISPs complain that Netflix is costing them so much bandwidth and doesn't want to pay for it, and then Netflix gives them a solution that reduces the bandwidth needs by a huge amount for free except the cost to power the device an a few slots of rack space...and the cable companies still cry foul.
