said by glmclell : limiting upstream is the industries only effective tool against widespread piracy. Hopefully after P2P dies, we can see upstream speeds increase, allowing legitimate uses to flourish... like being able to get past the 320x200 low frame-rate video and tinny audio that 128kbps allows users to conference at currently.
I don't think piracy is the issue here. Its most likely that since all connections will be symmetrical somewhere that your losing your upload so that your cable company can run its servers. They are basically giving us more of the download because they don't need it. But inorder to run their web page, for instance, they of course need the upload. |
