If you really look at it, the big three as far as broadband access in this country are Verizon, Cox, and Comcast...of the three, only Verizon has FIOS and offers speeds faster than Cox and Comcast's 12mb/s fastest package...if you have the bucks, Verizon can give you 30mb/s, twice the speed of what Cox and Comcast can give...but Comcast and Cox will tell you they are "blazingly fast"...on top of that you have companies like AT&T saying they have really fast Internet, but all they have is DSL, and anyone with an ounce of computing knowledge knows DSL isn't worth shit if you're a hard core gamer. So bottom line is it's all about the money. We can very easily have the infrastructure to have Internet speeds that rival other countries, but the bottom line is as long as we can sucker the consumer to pay $40 a month for 500kbps speeds and convince them that they are cutting edge, we won't get out of the information super tar pit.

"Convenience and you being at the mercy of whether or not your ISP deems that traffic taxable or expensive bulky disc boxes with insane prices? Good luck, consumer, you're bound to be screwed one way or the other!"....oh come on, you know Comcast will open up its pipes for this....right?

Peace out.
