[MLB-WIRELESS] bandwidth issues for the future/internet acces s

[Tony Langdon]

This is going to be a lot of fun.  I can see the development of a lot of
multicast based technology.  Multicast voice and video, maybe even multicast
internal news servers - one way to stop USENET bandwidth bloat :)

It's a very bandwidth efficient way to address multiple people.
