The real impact of the Internet is still to come as technological advances allow data to be fed faster and faster from point to point, and point to multiple points.
Data can take the form of video, audio, photographs, graphics and text.
Data transmission speeds in excess of those mentioned above will provide dramatically enhanced results, from both the standpoints of presentation and viewership potential. High-speed broadband connectivity will eliminate any discernible quality differences between video and audio that originate from an Internet source, and the video and audio that originates from a traditional television or radio broadcast outlet. This will permit the seamless blending of television and Internet content. With this in mind, it's exciting to know that the technology required for high-speed broadband Internet connectivity already exists. DSL technology, the technology favored by most of the telephone companies, is another proven solution for deploying broadband connectivity.
