Competition

Ive got a feeling that if this way to take off in a big way, the cable companies would just limit how much you could download. Which of course some of them are doing anyway, thats if Broadband TV was to compete in any way with their cable service in the future.

Actually the opposite would happen. They would just branch off into their own IP TV services.

Just look at VOIP as an example. Now that VOIP is becoming more a in thing, the cable companies want in. So they are now hurrying to launch their own VOIP service.

But the problem still lies in the bandwith is just not there to do it in real-time like regular cable TV works.

The closest so far is the VOD stuff that cable companies have now. Where it still uses a separate TV channel to send you the content in real-time.
