Oh, no. That would be great. And I would only be using 5% of the 300mbps LTE link. I would like that a lot. Maybe I can buy one of those plans on EBay or Craigslist. Will have to look into that.

In terms of market cap Netflix is not that much s!aller than TWC. They could probably handle it.

Netflix in HD is 2.3 GB/hr. If I had one of these grandfathered plans I might be racking up to 12GB/hr and 50 GB/day just for this.

In the US about half of Internet traffic in prime time is Netflix. It would behoove a company that sells Internet service to provision sufficient bandwidth to the part of the Internet their customers are paying so much to access. Maybe Netflix should just get into the fiber business and start collecting that $100/month instead of a measly $12 since they are already providing half the service anyway.

The Netflix boxes are adapted from Backblaze 4U 45 drive storage pods. It is called the Open Connect Hardware Appliance. They are not insignificant and I hear each one is designed to support up to 50,000 end users.

If you have 50,000 people paying you $80 a month and 50% of what they use it for is Netflix, you can afford the power and rack space for one 4U box.

I wonder why Level 3 doesn't just route most of the Netflix data though another backbone peer. Might as well saturate all of Verizon's peers.

The bandwidth is already 10x what it needs to be. Netflix gives free CDN boxes to ISPs that virtually eliminate this backbone traffic. That is the right way to solve this problem technically. It is cheap and eliminates redundant backbone traffic. Google Fiber takes the boxes even though they have ample backbone transit because that is the best solution for their customer, providing higher resolutions and lower latency to the video fan.

What ever Bing is, they should be working on solving the "ability to be known" problem. Solving "right to be forgotten" is fixing a problem they don't have.

This should do wonders for the emerging cloud economy.

Just take the GMO yeast to Montana and let it go in a barley field. THC will be in all the nation's beer shortly thereafter and impossible to remove.
