Regular radio waves happen to travel the same speed as light does. The better subspace waves go much, much faster.

You are very naughty. Just because they are instantaneous, doesn't make subspace waves "better". Would you say that a top fuel dragster is better than a minivan? Not unless you live exactly 1/4 mile from the grocery store. It's the same problem with subspace waves - they get there fast but there is no "cargo" space. To host a single porn site you would need to allocate over 42,000 subspace channels. Everyone knows this is why subspace has been a commercial failure from day one.
