So the big telco ISPs keep pushing abrogation of net neutrality on the grounds of having to build out capacity to handle video, by which they mean TV and HDTV from the usual Burbank studios.

What if they’re fighting the last war? Jeff Pulver points out:

Back on August 29th I posted a list of “TV Shows Only Available on the Net.” The following day, Network2 was born. Today 232 shows can be found in the Network2 guide.

Seems like it would be better risk management for those telcos, not to mention for the public, to be dealing with what people actually want.
