Default Good now, but not if it get's popular

Hi,

I have several friends with Telus TV and they have never complained. I was talking to our IT 'guy' at work and he explained to me the issue with bandwidth. Cable companies seem to be spending a lot more on developing their infrastructure than phone companies. (His opinion, I don't know if it is fact or not) If that is the case, the more people that use the service in a community, the more bandwidth it will eat up from the system - the same argument they make about why you shouldn't go with a cable internet connection. The limited bandwidth and 2 TV boxes per house is their way of delaying the inevitable. If it gets too popular, the system will crash if it isn't updated.

So, if it works for you, enjoy it. (And tell all your neighbors that it is lousy!) I'm sticking with the cable company...
