So, just what is broadband nirvana?


It's appeal is mostly for high graphics content websites (porn) and
newsgroup binaries (porn, Software, MP3's) which BTW have all largely
fueled the growth of the Internet.

This is not to say broadband is its own right is a bad thing. In some
areas such as Vermont, local calls are expensive. Here broadband
widely apeals because it costs the same as dialup when you add in
local call charges to link to the ISP.
