The issue is how we have handled the growth of the net.
The reason it is costing so much is due to how much it takes to keep this old creaky backbone going. Its insanely complicated because it went from simple BBSs to Graphics to video to HD video in less than half a century.
People think this can continue forever and that is not the case and sadly only the government can provide the many billions needed to even put a dent in this issue.
We are on the verge of people using services like netflix to download HD movies for viewing at home. When this grows expect to see bandwidth costs explode because there is just no more supply to handle all this.
