Do you not understand the difference between a want and a need?
I can help you out if you don't.

I didn't realize a netflix stream was needed for communication or business?

the ISPs were allowing for Netflix traffic to bottleneck

Did you miss the part about opening ports as a courtesy?
Go read up a bit about how peering works. The base term being "peer".
Pro-Tip: Netflix wasn't a peer. Yet expected to be treated like one.

Oh no, this argument is over, there is nothing else to say to you. We both made our points, and yours came in loud and clear. You fully support internet speeds from 20 years ago as the norm, and I feel we should not live in the past.

Neither do I. Like living in the past by using regulation from the early 1900s for utilities to regulate ISPs.

Yup. You missed the part about opening ports as a courtesy. And you clearly do not understand peering.

quote:When the contract wasn't an issue. The ISP's started acting like entitled bitches just because they could. There wasn't a word out of any ISP about having to open extra ports for Netflix at any point until the contract was expired. It was just the massive ISP making a power move on Netflix, throttling customers in the process. There's your free market.

His argument about wants and needs.
The required bandwidth for applications now are higher and lower latency for laetrile utility applications is a must. Wants vs needs? It is come to the point of NEEDS now. We aren't living off the grid in North Alabama.
The guy is a Food & Drink, PT and SEC Rant board poster. He just likes to argue. Please move on.

Do you understand how a contract works?

It was the massive ISP wanting compensation for doing something that before they did as a courtesy and received a courtesy in kind.
Netflix couldn't return this courtesy and increasingly kept needing this courtesy provided as they ramped up their streaming content. Therefore compensation was requested for the next contract.
That is 100% free market.
