Re: Clue Truck coming down the road...

But the article was not talking about new subscribers, it was talking about new data types like video and multimedia that eat up a tremendous amount resources not used before.

True, but the new subs are, nonetheless, still coming in.

Either way, the use is due to progress (for all), rather than a specific scapegoatted minority. Cost of business and all that.

Was not AT&T the one that said if you want to serve his customers, you will have to pay extra? Or was that another telco?

So AT&T wants to be paid for the following:

1) The DSL users who pay AT&T.
2) The Data Center or Content Provider who buys OC-VeryFast from AT&T.
3) The Content Provider who pays AT&T for prioritization to the DSL customer.
4) The people AT&T has peering agreements with because more data is moving across their network.

Wow. I wish mine were that big.

I think you could just summarize it like this:

So AT&T wants to be paid by the following:

1) Every single human being on earth
.... unless they are AT&T Management.
