Life in the Fast Lane
Simply looking at the issue from a business point of view the idea of a fast lane seems to make perfect sense.Furthermore, moving bandwidth hogs off of the normal lines would only help consumers and regular users of the internet by freeing up valuable bandwidth. But of even more importance is understanding that government regulation of the internet is by all accounts a bad idea. Throughout this discussion it is important to remember that as of right now there is no problem and we shouldn't try and solve it like there is.
