What the Internet really is

The first aim of the Internet, even though unknown at that time, was to teach the existing world a lesson.
How to be succesful and widespread without being a Monopolist.

The society before the Internet Revolution can be compared to the French society pre revolution.
Few families ruling the whole econnomic world.
Instead of families we can consider few multinational companies that aim to play every role in the whole actual world.( which of course is much bigger than the world of that time.)

The end to end Networked proved to be more efficient and more succesful than any centralized and monopolized company.
The customers' owned network and customers' made content have many more customers and users than any existing monopoly.

The actual projects of any IPTV or Movie on demand could be seen as rough tries to restore the old market players and the old economic model.
It is a bad copy of the existing business model.
TV broadcasted on the Net instead of via air.
The few advantages would be the possibility of downloading "on demand" and the bigger footprint.
But the huge disvantages would be the need of consuming costly bandwidth, where the existing broadcasting "on air" practically costs the customer the mere price of an antenna on the roof.

But in the True spirit of the Internet, the end to end network, means much more than that, and it is going to revolutionize the old existing way of broadcasting.
Customers' owned network means customers' done broadcasting.
Everybody can become his own broadcaster, providing he knows how to do.
Instead of websites we will have videos, instead of HTML we will use more and more sophisticated compressions and software to produce movies people like to look at.
People learned that it is not amusing any more to be told what to wear, what to think, what to listen, what to look at.
People will want to make theis own content, to forge their entertainments.
And the Internet Revolution will mean exactly that.

VCs of the world, have this in mind when you choose where to invest your money...
