What we need here in the uk is the cable lines opened up for other isp's to use
Much like they can on the bt lines and also pretty much like what they do with our gas/electric and water
Then we can pick and choose our cable (internet) provider and do away with adsl down the phone line
Good for this chap to drop virgin, though what took him so long? I dropped virgin for bethere.co.uk many months ago and have not looked back
What they seem to forget is that p2p is used by everyday average joes and janes.
The stuff they really want to stop but can't is the mass downloading and selling.
What are they gonna kill after p2p? well thats ftp of course.
If p2p stops then ftp will rise again but will return underground.
I gotta say can swedish servers cope if this was to happen and what about the simple rule of not putting all your eggs in one basket?
If all the file sharers move to sweden then we know where to find them.
I think it's good for them to make a stand but will they lead the way or get globally net banned???
They should release music for free and make money on live shows that to be honest can't be pirated cause you can't download the experience of a live show now can you?

What have we got to trade? we can barely support our own planet.
Until the term "third world" no longer exists we have nothing to trade.
