Welcome to Download Monkey. News, reviews, forums - in fact everything you need to know about bananas video on demand.
The only way to improve (a great theory) is practice, practice, practice wear it as a t-shirt.
Here at Download Monkey we love this bold new updating of one of our favouite theories and we're always suckers for an idea so good we wish we had thought of it ourselves.
And to sweeten the deal even more, prices are in dollars and some of the profits go to the EFF (they're like your web Guardian Angels...)
Speaking at the eForum on Web 2.0, Jim Cicconi, vice president of legislative affairs for AT&T claimed that the Internet as we know it will collapse in 2010. The infrastructure simply cannot cope with the amount of date being transferred. Remember - it's a series of tubes.
Who is to blame? Actually that is the question and the answer. According to Tiscali - the BBC's iPlayer is a major drain on the bandwidth. So blame Dr Who.
The other drain on bandwidth is the increasing demand for HD videos. HD takes up 7 to 10 times the bandwidth of normal low res-web video.
So next time you watch a crystal clear video of a kitten falling down, you're definitely killing the Internet. Experts say so.
