it, do you think that we're gonna have to pay per site, and that'll be our only option?The problem is, ISPs and the net don't work on a technical level like the telephone or TV did / does. It depends on how they intend on having a 'news only' or 'sports only' internet package, how they implement that on a technical level, because I don't see it happening.There will still be a package that includes full access to everything. They're not gonna take that away from us.They're just gonna start offering cheaper packages for people who only use the internet for only news or only sports. It would save the people money, and save the ISP bandwidth. The problem is, if they want to access something else, they'll have to pay extra for it.But they'll still offer the same deal we're getting now. They're just gonna offer other packages alongside it, similar to how DirecTV works.
That's why I brought up the internet browser thing. Something like DirectTV you can at least attempt to have full control over. A Xbox 360 cannot browse the net, you can only access things MS allows you to. As soon as someone has the options a PC or even a Wii or PS3 have, someone can upload content from pornsiteX on fakesportssiteZ and all that 'restricted access' goes out the window. Someone can run a proxy web site (they already do).
