Well, investing tons of money in lobbyists to pass state laws to prevent the deployment of municipal broadband utilizing public tax monies and breaks, is considered unethical (at least to me).
So, not investing in infrastructure is not the problem, but preventing others from doing so, is scummy.
They do not want to invest AND they don't want to compete.

So, what is happening faster:
1) Deployment of AFFORDABLE highspeed broadband
or
2) Decreasing local storage costs
Why do I need to stream something if I can store 6TB of data locally for less than $150 (and decreasing daily).
How much storage space will $200 buy you in 10 years? And how many decades of video and audio could one store on such a device?
