Singapore network upgrade boosts video
Discussion about the consumer benefits of Australia's NBN routinely ignore its potential to be a game changer for video consumption.
Not so in Singapore, which is about to deliver download speeds that will "..enable the contents of a DVD to be downloaded in only a few seconds."
Commentators predict that "...the new network is expected to give a strong boost to the growth of services like online video..."
This will lead to consumption patterns like those in South Korea, which incidentally is not resting on its laurels in the speed stakes.
They have announced a plan to upgrade their network speed to 1 Gig/sec by 2013, enough to stream HD Video.
So why do they see the benefits in terms of video content and Australians don't?
One take on this - the Labour government has got enough on its plate without alienating existing broadcasters and distributors with promises of a radical new distribution medium.
