Comcast Vs. Netflix: Don’t Let This Happen

 

   Level3 Communications (Netflix partner)  has come out and accused  Comcast of raising the rate which Netflix pays to the cable company in order to have Netflix movies carried on the companies service, and putting internet video carriers at an un-fair disadvantage.

   What happens is that basically Netflix would have to raise their rates to customers while outfits like Comcast can then charge a cheaper rate to customers who would use Comcast’s own video service. This should not be allowed to happen,and you can help do something about it.

  Go HERE and sign this petition to let FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski know that this is not a good thing to let pass.

Embassy Cable Leaks In Torrent Files.. UPDATE

 

…which I guess have been posted to the net this way because  the WikiLeaks site has been very difficult to access due either to the traffic that these cables are generating or the site is being jammed up by our government.

  The two links below will get you the files if you are interested in them. They are “torrent” files so you will need something like Vuze in order to download them. This software is my favorite and it is used everyday with no problems. It is also Windows 7 compatible.
