Full Capacity Assumptions
by Andrew McCaskey
There is nothing like the search for a dramatic headline that is almost content free.
Hence the CNET story, linked above – “Internet to hit full capacity by 2010″ – where some VP from ATandT is making the point that there is going to be some very high level of capital investment made. What he fails to point out is that companies like like his are rushing full bore into soaking up that bandwidth with video offerings trying to do an end run around the cable television industry. His speculation that “everything will go HD very soon, and HD is 7 to ten times more bandwidth intensive.
Everything is far from going HD – if that same company is trying to call 1.5MB DSL “broadband” to provide access to that content.
I don’t think you can have it both ways.
