Netflix

Yes, that's exactly the problem...if Apple starts streaming everything, the cable providers just put caps on the amount of data you can stream over broadband, and suddenly streaming hours of TV/movies every day is a non-starter. They are heading that way anyway, just as the wireless providers are capping data on cellphones.

I briefly wondered if Apple could just buy the cable providers, but I see Comcast has a market cap of $65b, so I guess not. They could pick up Cablevision (Breand's outfit) for a mere $4b, though...

Here's another article on it that just showed up:
