This is exactly what the broadband industry needs. being a cable subcriber myself this would open up a lot of doors of oporunity for me to save my almighty dollars, what little of them i have. hopefully we can get it to apply not just to da states but to canada too, as dat is my current place of rez.

Yea it would be. but cable providers would have to deal with limits of the other cables backbone to be effective..
Lets say your on a timewarner cable infostructer and alephia comes in with 2-3 customers. Your network is setup for 2-3/386Mbps and Adliphia has a 4/512 setup. If a few of these people move over to Adlphia then your bandwidth on the network will be oversold. TW would need as massive overhaul. Then again TW could charge MASSIVE fees for using their cable with your ISP.
