Torrent, p2p, tube sites - INTERNET OUTAGES

Report: Internet Outages Could Occur By 2010 As Capacity Stalls

Booming demand for Internet services combined with insufficient infrastructure investment could leave the Web vulnerable to brown outs within three years, a study released Tuesday predicted.

Nemertes Research said Internet providers need to invest from $42 billion to $55 billion -- or 60% to 70% more than current plans call for -- to stave off interruptions to the digital economy that could happen if the 'Net bogs down. "The next Google, YouTube, or Amazon might not arise" if the situation isn't fixed, Nemertes said.

The problem, the group said, is that bandwidth usage is outpacing infrastructure build outs. While core fiber and switching/routing technology "will scale nicely," Internet access resources could soon be overwhelmed in three to five years, Nemertes said.

If that were true, I can't understand why bandwidth prices continue to drop.

I don't see a reason for the drops either other than a lack of real competitive features

sounds more like a "paid" research from the cable-telecom companies whom want to do away with net neutrality.

What if we limit a certain amount of available global bandwidth for p2p/tubes etc., like in case the outage occur, these services should only suffer.

Its same like you fixing the % amount of electricity which can be consumed via air conditioners nationwide .. so that bottom-line needs don't get affected.

Tracking protocols and traffic is way easier than tracking air conditioner usages.

IE: buy Cisco and Juniper stocks, they are the ones who provide the backbones of the Internet.

Thank me later.

in other words, backbones will be fine, but your local cable companies will not.
