   Maybe I'm missing some grander vision of a future in which I pay $.50/minute to view TV shows over my computer.

   23 Feb 2009 ~ 10:56am MiracleManS I guess I can see that, but can't they work out an agreement on how to count that stuff instead of saying "NO! BAD CONSUMER!"?

   And in the meantime, while they figure out what to do, they say no. They'd rather restrict unnecessarily just in case they're losing revenue than let it go until they figure it out for sure.
