Time Warner and Cablevision have an agreement to allow their customers to use each other's hot spots. You can sign on to an Optimum hot spot with your TWC account and vice versa.
Cable companies are forced to sell in bundles by the content providers. That is why when there is a disagreement over rates when a contract is up you see a bunch of channels go black. I'm sure most cable companies would be glad to unbundle, it would make it a lot easier to keep customers from disconnecting. As it is now the content providers force the cable companies to place their channels on a designated tier of service and do not allow them to sell it separately in most cases (HBO being a rare exception).
If the cable companies can break out of the forced bundling they would easily crush these new startup streaming companies. They could provide the same service for the same price but with a much higher quality due to the fact they would have exponentially more bandwidth to utilize.
Its more likely the white kid had to work harder for his grades than the kid in the rundown minority school. A lot of the valedictorians of inner-city schools would be average at best students in some of the better suburban schools.
Simple answer, you need to level the playing ground between kids that have strong parental involvement and those that do not. Why doesn't the government just rip all kids away from their parents and put them into state-run orphanages.
If the broadcasters that transmit over the public airways want to cease using these airways then fine let them do that. The government can then take the airways back and auction them off for other uses. The whole concept of over the air broadcast television is rather outdated anyway.
Its 10 Mb/s to the ISP, not 10 Mb/s to every single server on the face of the Earth. If Netflix can't get the traffic to your ISP fast enough then they need to find a provider who can.
Why should they charge the user more? If I download an equivalent amount of data from various sources around the Internet that don't overload the ISP am I going to get charged more? The ISP last mile network is what end users pay for, that is not where the congestion is here. If Netflix is having problems they should be complaining to their ISP not mine. If they can't get the QOS they need then they need to find a new provider.
Its really nothing special about the hardware. The Apple box would have a built-in cable modem that would operate at a different frequency than the regular cable modems. This would require Comcast to install additional switches to handle these devices along with more personnel to mange them. That money would presumably come from Apple.

Oh, and Megan Fox will be in it too.
But not the sequel.

That would be fair.

Its not every word that is recorded. The recorder activates when they engage the sirens. They are only recorded in the process of doing their jobs.

Yes, take any of the roads along the whole northern border of NJ.
When the Supreme Court overturns Griggs v. Duke Power Co. employers will stop requiring degrees. Until then they have to unless they want to get sued.
Sounds like a real lucrative career path there.
