Give a minute or twenty, I could think up half a dozen applications which would suck up a terabit link in a hot second. Give me a couple that would be widely used. As the masses go online the majority of the bandwidth will be consumed by applications of mass popularity. What application in use on a high percentage basis will use more than 1 video stream/person? None I can think of. I still say that we discover somewhere around 10Mbit/person (bidirectional) that the demand for bandwidth is not infinite. Sure- people will want 100Mbit peak speeds but I supect that at this point the demand for more will drop off very drastically. Still a long way to go before we get to that point though... Eric
