Since most people moving to broadband really don't care about services like that, I have another option. I want all ISPs to STOP offering video and audio content.
Just because it hasn't caught on and provider networks aren't designed for bandwidth intensive content (*cough* Cox *cough*), doesn't mean it won't catch on in the future. If the lame-brain idiots that run major ISPs and backbones started pricing bandwidth reasonably (justify $400/Mbps), we'd have the networks and bandwidth to handle it.

There have been two companies, WideOpenWest (I think) and another (Winfirst ?!) that have shown Video Over IP can work... Of course they are using 100Mbps fibre, not slow poke coax or four pair copper.

Let's just say I've had my fair share of problem with them and those problems had never been this numerous with my old provider before they tanked.
