Default Shutting down big downloaders
Interesting article has been posted over at MSNBC about Comcast shutting down people who download too much internet content.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20633771/

Can you imagine if Bill Gates has his way what it will be like on a Friday night when every Joe Blow has no choice but to download their movies for the weekend. The ISPs will be shutting down your accounts. The amount of traffic will clog systems so much the weekend will be over by the time your download is completed.

This is why packaged HD media is the only winner for the forseeable future. I just cannot see with the exisitng technology currently in place how the general public on a mass scale can support downloadable services as the primary source for home entertainment.

Thoughts?
