I remember hearing some grumblings in the past about this. According to
Fox 5 last night it appears that AT&T is going to start charging higher
fees to those who download large files such as movies and such. Anybody
hear anymore of this? They did not give any details as to how much the
fee or how large or frequency of downloads. Does that include distro dvd
images or other software updates or packages? I guess that gives a new
look at "free software"? Just looking for any input to this, opinions,
etc, or possibly something that may shed some light on whether this is
true or just a rumor.
