Srvhap, We are coming around full circle to the issue of relavence. If you look at bandwidth from the Telco perspective you may tend to conclude that the majority of initial target users/customers will be businesses both large and small. The content(relavence) in this case will be driven, initially, by the type of business and how they operate. On the other hand, the entertainment industry(cable) on it's own, one might conclude, will focus on the individual. It is what they are good at. They will try to drive the content(relavence) by providing entertainment. I see this as being a much harder sell than providing banwidth to business. I agree with your opinion about the justification for paying $75/month and that is why I think you will see much more collaboration between Entertainment and Telco's. The lines will blur. Sooo! What do you think about Ted Turner putting in a bid for MCI? Or maybe TNT could be GTE's next aquisition?? Regards, Milkman
