    I think it's pure BS that bendbroadband wants to charge us based on the bandwidth we use. I see myself changing the moment that comes into effect!

    I read some place that that was supposed to happen last April, guess they might be rethinking things. I pray they don't do it though... I watch all my TV online so I take up a pretty good chunk of the Bandwidth I guess... Hulu is a hell of a thing!

    this makes me very dissilusioned because for years the internets was for alot of free thinkers and now we are going to be charged for loving information, kinda sucks.

    It's just a money making scheme. Before too long we'll be paying per bit!

    In the paper today is an article about a couple companies getting together to take advantage if the larger bandwidth available. Sounds like the only one that will lose is US.

    Thats a horribly scary thought, I'd like to think we have a better chance than that.
