I think you completely misunderstood the story, Ike. The days of you being able to endlessly stream Netflix, Hulu and Vudu over the internet are coming to a close. This story focused on Comcast, but it’s a move that all providers are going to, whether you have cable, fiber-optic, or as you put it lowly DSL. Right now about 30% of internet users stream video from sources like Netflix. It’s already been recognized in the industry that the infrastructure is not there to handle it when it climbs to 50%.

There will have to be work arounds such as cacheing during non peak periods.
