Honesty from an ISP?!?!?!?

Frankly Earthlink is admitting what most ISPs know already, most people get broadband to download things and play online games. If you just need to check your email dial-up does fine for $9.99 a month.

It's actually innovative of them to seek a standard protocol, and most likely would allow them to streamline services to better accommodate known P2P traffic.

Now they just need the ISPs with the checkbooks to join the "reality club" and lobby Congress to ignore Orrin.
