Senate votes to restore net neutrality:

Breaking: the U.S. Senate just voted 52-47 vote on the bill to restore and to protect a fair and open internet. Amazing victory for consumers, small businesses and rural communities. Final vote at 3. Watch on CSpan!

If people in aggregate want more bandwidth, somebody will find a way to provide it at a price customers want, as long as government doesn't stop it.

Stop making sense.

And if big corporations like ESPN have the money to buy up bandwidth, they wont for long as nobody watches that drivel any longer. The money will be where the consumers wants it to be.

If anyone wants to read a good article about the net and "net neutrality" see this

It's a long term issue.  Nobody expected a bunch of payed tiers to pop up overnight.  It never works that way.

You are correct. The uproar over the paid tiers and throttling down has to die down and be forgotten before it's quietly resurrected and put into place without any fanfare. Then, it will be quietly instituted and once it's found, the companies will say, "See? It's barely noticeable!" before they really start hitting up customers down the road from then. It's a long-term game for gain.
