Last week, with the release of season two of Netflix's House of Cards, Netflix users noticed a perceptible slow down of service as many Americans started to watch the entire series from the comfort of their living rooms. As a result, Netflix and Comcast just penned an agreement to improve the download service available to Netflix customers on the Comcast network. Yes, as Netflix consumes more and more of the Internet bandwidth, the threat of Internet TV is becoming clear to the major cable providers. I think Frank Underwood said it best in a recent episode of House of Cards:
...every kitten grows up to be a cat. They seem so harmless, at first,
small, quiet, lapping up their saucer of milk. But once their claws get
long enough, they draw blood. Sometimes from the hand that feeds them.
For those of us climbing to the top of the food chain, there can be no
mercy. There is but one rule: Hunt or be hunted.
