Quote:As I see it, there's only one real solution. Companies like Comcast need to increase their bandwidth capacity,
Yes, which is a problem. Backbone capacity is growing faster than network traffic, but comcast's and most other ISPs have oversold the last mile capacity by a hughe amount and there is no competition to change that.
Comcast can't get in the business of allowing some traffic an not allowing others, it's hard to do and they will lose their common carrier status, meaning they would be liable for millions or even billions of dollars.
The problem is peak utilization, so the obvious solution would be to throttle bandwith during peak times, much like electricity cost is scaled by time, at noon electricity is ten times as expensive as it is at 5 am.
The worst Comcast did in my opinion was lie about what they where doing. That was completely unacceptable, if they hadn't lied I wouldn't have been happy with what they where doing but I wouldn't be anywhere near as angry.
