Let's get something straight here. Server busy error that you get in browser has nothing to do with the Internet backbone. It happends because there is a limit to number of concurrent user that server can support due to Hardware and Software limitation. Ever wonder why netscape website always comes up pretty fast when it is bombarded by millions of requests per day? If the problem is the Server's connection to the backbone, it's just take long time to download files and pages. Like how speed of FTP differs according to the FTP site that you are accessing. Where do you base your opinion that Internet backbone can't support it when all the backbone providers are increasing the bandwidth every year? Unless you are talking about having T-1 line in every home, most of the current user access Internet through 28.8k modem, that doesn't take much of backbone's bandwidth. Give me any figures that support your claims (such as why Internet backbone can't support it) and I will be happy to comment it. Or show me study to prove that only porn web site makes money. What's about Wall Street Journal Interactive Edition? They just signed a good $$$ with M$.
