Anyone care to take this bet??
The Telcos and the ISPs will make the logical inference that if people are willing to pay for content, then they must be willing to pay per Mb for the privilege of downloading that overpriced content. NEVER MIND that we are already paying too much for broadband access as it is, some smartass marketing droid is gonna figure out that the telcos can charge for downloads...
I can see it now "lessee, sir, you downloaded 100mb this month...at our ComLinkStarPointBandMegaTelCo discount rate of only $4.00 per mb, that adds up to $400 per month. Will that be cash, check, charge or shall we just take your first born and your left testicle??"
Personally, I'm not ever gonna pay for content. Who needs CNN's shitty little videos anyway? "Kamal Hyder reports on the race to determine the fastest Pinworm in Paktia province this year.....a bargain at only $20 per download."
How dumb do they think consumers are??
