My question on this is why would we be sending large
amounts of data on amateur radio? The need for it
doesn't exist in general. If it did, someone would have
developed the appropriate digital mode by now.

Erm.... Packet Radio..?!

I ran a packet BBS for 11 years, ok so it was slow (1200/9600 bd) but it
was reliable and transmitted a *lot* of data (ok most of it rubbish, but
what the heck..?!)
