Web Video and P2P
It looks like the only long term solution to the bandwidth expense of video is actually well within reach.
In a rather clever adaptation of P2P, the recommendation that ISP’s form pools of subscribers with the ISP customer base. Peer to peer exchange is allowed (in fact encouraged) but it is metered or traffic shaped only for content that has not yet made it into the ISP pool.
For a large operator, such as Comcast, the removal of the large traffic to and from other ISP’s (and the associated costs) happens automatically, once one piece of media comes into the subscriber pool.
Sounds smart. We will see if operators are smart enough to take advantage of it.
