Mark Cuban: Internet vs. TV

Mark Cuban says most users will not be able to get the access bandwidth they need.

The last mile into our homes wont have enough bandwidth to support all that we will want to do via our internet connections at home. There is no Moore’s law for bandwidth to the home.

There is a huge misconception that bandwidth will just continue to experience unlimited expansion for every broadband household. Its what we are used to with hard drives, processors, all technology. It gets faster, cheaper, bigger. That’s not the case for the next decade with bandwidth

The net result is that TV is going to be TV, delivered like TV for a long time to come. (I consider IPTV to be regular TV). There wont be enough bandwidth for it to be any other way.
