| HappySqurriel said: I think I should make my point clearer ... With how broadband internet useage has grown, and with how speeds have improved for the price you pay over the past 5 to 10 years how do you think it will grow over the next 5 to 10 years? We could end up having 200,000,000 households will 25Mb/s (or better) internet access, and cable "video-on-demand" services with much higher bandwith, and with the proper download service video downloads can take off ... |
I think over the next 5-10 years speeds will continue to increase, in large, densly populated areas. Believe it or not there are still areas where dial up is the only cheap option. I don't live in a small town, about 70,000 people with a university, and the best I can get without getting screwed over by the cable company is 1.5 for $30. There are dsl providers with the same speed for $40 and the cable people charge $60 for 8.
