Tired and pathetic old argument

no more tired or pathetic than 'you can't name a use for it so we shouldn't build it'

and I'm not sure that, given the nature and style of most of your posts, you can comment on the quality of discussion on this forum without being a total fvcken hypocrite.

Your side lost

Learn to live with what that entails

like you had accepted the fact that your side lost for the last 6 yrs?

why should we spend $100B so you can avoid driving to the video store? the biggest infrastructure expenditure needs to have genuine benefits beyond bigger TVs.

Whenever anyone asks about the true benefits of the NBN no one can ever articulate it other than TV - and that simply isn't good enough. Faster porn and torrent downloads don't seem like much of a reason either.

NOT ONE CREDIBLE RESIDENTIAL application at all.

Im pretty sure the Australian taxpayer didn't fund the upgrade from dial upto broad band to the tune of billions of dollars, so one has nothing todo with the other.

If you want superfast YOU pay for it, stop demanding others pay for your lifestyle

Nonsense - Nail is right.

The fact is that if it's done right with fiber you don't have to re-do it later.
The aging copper network will only deteriorate over time as
it sits in pits full of water & humidity.

One day you won't have a connection anymore & you'll
be buying a USB wireless stick at astronomical prices to just stay online.

That's our future under Luddite Libbos - people like you.

... - 4K real time TV to be displayed on TVs that aren't even available yet ...

Sony Bravia 65" 4K Ultra HD LED TV
Hisense Ultra HD TVs
SAMSUNG has launched the biggest home television ever
84" Class Ultra High Definition 3D TV with Smart TV (3D in UHD takes even more bandwidth, I'm told)
I could go on, but you get the picture. 4k/UHD TVs are expensive at the moment, but they're certainly available.

For longweekend58, it's a good day when he's made a fool of himself less than a dozen times. I wonder about his grasp of reality.

I fail to imagine how watching a bigger/better tv is beneficial for anyone or for Australia.

It'ld be better for you to go for a walk.

so how does a better tv improve your life ?

It is just one example of the infinite possibilities of the NBN.

How about downloading a movie from your local video store in 5 minutes ready to play on your TV?

How about watching full HD TV in real time from places like youtube?

What about running a full large internet server from home
with huge 1 GBit/ sec upload?

We can only begin to imagine the possibilities.

Well - say goodbye to it for now.

At least Turnbull is promising direct optic fiber connection
for those willing to pay for it but I heard a figure
of $20,000 per month to rent a 1 GBit/sec line speed. (up & down)

Who can afford that?

bobby - yes, so how does watching a better tv improve you life ?
your examples are :- Quote:

.....downloading a movie from your local video store in 5 minutes ready to play on your TV?

How about watching full HD TV in real time from places like youtube?...............

how do those improve your life ?
you would be better to go for a walk around the block.
literally. it's bette for your health than watching tv.
even in hyperdefinition virtual reality.
Walking is better.

5 reasons you want Google Fiber in your city.

By Sam Gustin, Time

April 12, 2013 -- Updated 0949 GMT

Quote:

CNN) -- This week, tech giant Google made it official: Google Fiber is coming to Austin. Residents of the hip Texas city will be the beneficiaries of Internet speeds of 1-gigabit, roughly 100 times faster than current speeds.

In Kansas City, where the service launched last fall, 1-gigabit service costs $70 per month. For $120 per month, consumers get Google's TV service in addition to gigabit speeds. The company also offers seven years of free Internet service at current (5 mbps) speeds, after a $300 installation fee.

The truth is that we still don't know all of the innovative ways in which 1-gigabit Internet service will be put to use. Fifteen years ago, when most people still had slow, dial-up connections, many of the broadband uses we now take for granted would have seemed far-fetched. Video-conferencing services like Skype didn't exist for the average consumer.

Now, millions of people use Skype to communicate every day. Internet-based streaming services like Netflix didn't exist. Today, millions of people use Netflix to watch movies and TV shows over the Internet.

What will the next generation of engineers and developers do with Google Fiber? It's hard to say, because so few people currently have access to the service. But Google is laying the foundation for new, gigabit-based applications that haven't yet been invented.

"The gigabit is the future," Kevin Lo, Google Fiber general manager, said in announcing that Austin would receive the new service. "At Google, we have always invested in the future of the Internet. When more people are connected, it makes our communities stronger."
