Something has been puzzling me. My cable company provides me with a broadband connection, 100 channels of TV and a telephone line. All the information comes down the same cable that enters my house.
I leave the TV all day and I don't see anyone complaining about the about of data my set-top box is receiving. What is the difference between this and downloading DivX movies all day? They both cost me about the same each month - where is the problem?
