[QUOTE="RLR, post: 293466, member: 486"] On the one hand, this is a great revenue stream from GT. On the other hand, I don't feel proud that my beloved alma mater is a beneficiary of the business model designed to kill the internet. [B]Anyone who understands technology[/B]: why don't we use technology to debundle programing, create a neutral distribution network, cut out non-value-add middleman, and offer consumers lower prices & more options? [B]Cable companies:[/B] why don't we buy all the cables and the content companies & we'll charge you whatever the hell we want [B]College football cartel:[/B] you know, linear TV is dependent upon real-time content. why don't we extort a high rent from cable companies and see how high can push this bubble [B]Current FCC policy:[/B] Net Neutrality is bad! let's cut this meddlesome regulation so that Comcast can conspire with other content producers who want to extract college football like rent! [B]Malevolent Giant: [/B]"a company or an individual holding some monopoly privilege who fully understands how a new technology might increase social value. But the giant also realizes that there is now way it can capture this increase in social value. Unable to capture the gain, and certain to lose its own rents, the malevolent giant acts to resist the technological change, as a way of preserving its own power" - Larry Lessig (2002). [/QUOTE]
