Hi, Utube is a perfect example of Pull. You "Pulled" a video off of Utube. (to watch at the time you requested) "Push" can be related to your local TV station... They Push content to you if you are watching. They are still pushing even if your TV is off. Broadcast Radio does the same thing.. Push. There are more and more buzzwords every day.. It's hard to keep up. <gg>

The "bottleneck" is going to be with us for probably upwards of ten years. Just a wild guess. Folks are eating up bandwidth intensive stuff and it's gonna get really bad in the next few years when HDTV fully rolls out and NTSC TV gets turned off in February of 2009. The old media world has gone through a lot of churning since VCR's showed up in the 70's. But this new new wave is going to be gut wrenching for everyone. It's about keeping the "keys to the kingdom". Definitely going to be fun to watch play out!
