I think this article is mostly fear mongering. While it is true that the promise of broadband and integration of video on demand, full motion ads and other services such as gaming that would cause an explosion of usage hasn't occured...yet. It will. Right now it's a chicken and egg thing. There are not enough broadband customers to justify the added expense of producing the content that will attract all the broadband users. I believe that it will, but it will be slower than the hype predicted. It is inevitable that all of the information and entertainment avenues will converge and they will be sped ito the house on big fat pipes...someday. jb
