I think this is about control of the content.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The ISPs stand at a crossroads today (especially teleco's).  They can choose to do what they fear the most and become a "dumb pipe" or they can try their best to muscle their way into the content providing business.  I think that they have made their choice - and it's not being a "dumb pipe". &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The bottom line is that the more control you have the more profit you stand to make.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">deadzone</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 24 Jun 2008 19:08:09 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
