Yep, I agree, it's a whole new ball game if you can drastically change the architecture.

But regarding :"..1 GHz analog can yield several Gbps, conservatively."

True enough, somewhere north of 4 Gbps in aggregate, when viewed as the whole enchilada. But the modems at the end user would need hundreds of tuners and demods to be able to stitch this all back together (with the current channel plan) so that an individual could see those rates. Even if you had the ability to change the channel plan to much wider channels, semiconductors are not quite to the point where you could do this with a single channel, so it would still require multiple tuner/demods. Not an inexpensive endpoint.
