Why do you always assume we're talking about carriers, or the evil telcos,
RBOC's, etc....? I'm talking about small to medium-sized service providers
looking to expand services to compete against the Comcast's and AT&T's of
the world that can practically give away Internet because they already own
the infrastructure.

We (by which I mean those small-to-medium SP's) can compete not on price
but on additional value and flexibility.

Some in the industry are pushing the idea of reaching deeper into the

carriers who whine about content going over the top need to get their
heads out of the somethingorother.  if you choose to be a trucker and
folk are using your truck to transport gold, damned hard to justify
whining when you choose to be a trucker.
