Many thanks for sharing your broadband experiences with us, timothy.

Glad you mentioned broadband's largely unexploited hot button, the "always on" factor.

I'm curious. As a result of this capability, do you leave your computer on 24/7? Do you use your computer differently as a result of its "always on" feature?

Presumably, the reason broadband doesn't really change the streamed media experience is that it's still being buffered before playback. As you indicate, though, at least you're not "rebuffering."

Thanks for sharing your family Web site. See you're into guitars. Have a '77 Martin D-28. You know, there's really nothing like a Martin...
