I feel bad that things I write are assumed to be facetious...I guess it's nobody's fault but my own

In reply to this comment by Skeeve:
I'm not sure if your comment was facetious or not, but you were pretty close to the mark. It's not the television networks (per se), but the television providers. The television providers are also the major ISPs and they know that if they can throttle the internet enough, or make it prohibitively expensive to use services like Netflix, then people will buy television service instead.

As I have said before, this is a pure money grab by the telecoms who have supported it. Luckily there are those few, like Telus, who have refused to change to UBB and have decried it as the money grab it is.

40 gigabit for 5$ that's shit.
that's like 8 movies on netflix. or 63 cents a movie.
lucky i'm in america don't see these costs.

That would change the dynamic of services like Netflix online. I wonder if the television networks have anything to do with this decision.
