I think you'll find that cable companies are going to
be harder on this than DSL for the simple reason that
Cable is locally shared..ie nieghborhood shared and
the increase in traffic would degrade the product they
are selling in the area. DSL on the other hand is
dedicated and controllable at the DSLAM so they aren't
worried about it.
