Its B.S.

So cable providers are just going to give away huge bandwidth to anyone who buys a PS4 in the UK. So they will give away millions in lost revenue just to make Sony Happy. Or is Sony, who is bleeding cash still, just going to pay for everyone's montly cable bill...

Oh yes...can uuuuuu smell it!

I agree this sounds a little incredulous, but be respectful in how you convey your messages, please.

Yes it is very difficult to belive.  After looking on the web, Sony is basically trying to work with providers to have increased SLAs with their internet connections.   Its a deal that they are working with various providers in the UK to offer package plans (at a specific cost) to give better internet connectivity.  While it may be a good idea in theory, it would be very difficult in execution unless Sony is willing to help provide additonal infrastructre in all markets, which of course, is impossible...so yes, very incredulous.

As for my posting, it was just a joke from the WWE days with the Rock, it was not directed at any individual but rather the conecpt he posted.  200Mb/s is unrealistic and even if it were possible, that type of increased bandwidth would require extensive network redesign because cable modem is shared technology, so unless they are going to partion out a hugh amount of bandwidth for just Sony PS4, I just don't see that happening.
