In a filing with the Federal Communications Commission Comcast said such measures which can slow the transfer of music or video between subscribers sharing files for example are necessary to ensure better flow of traffic over its network. In defending its actions Comcast stepped into one of the technology industry s most divisive battles. Comcast argues that it should be able to direct traffic so networks don t get clogged consumer groups and some Internet companies argue that the networks should not be permitted to block or slow users access to the Web. Comcast s FCC filing yesterday was in response to petitions to the agency by the consumer group Free Press and the online video provider Vuze which claimed that the cable company was abusing its control over its network to impede video competition. Separately the FCC began an investigation of Comcast s network practices after receiving those complaints. That review is ongoing according to Comcast which said it hasn t received any specific orders based on the complaints. The FCC prohibits network operators from blocking applications but opens the door to interpretation with a footnote in a policy statement that provides for an exemption for reasonable management. Rep. Edward J. Markey D Mass. chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee s subcommittee on telecommunications and the Internet plans to introduce a bill today calling for an Internet policy that would prohibit network operators from unreasonably interfering with consumers right to access and use content over broadband networks. The bill also calls for the FCC to hold eight meetings around the nation to assess whether there is enough competition among network providers and whether consumers rights are being upheld. Our goal is to ensure that the next generation of Internet innovators will have the same opportunity the same unfettered access to Internet content services and applications that fostered the developers of Yahoo Netscape and Google Markey said in a written statement yesterday. The case with Comcast illustrates the high stakes battle between those who argue that the Internet should remain open to all traffic and the companies who argue that some governance of their networks is in the best interest of their customers. In its comments Comcast said network controls are necessary especially for heavy Web users. Specifically the company imposes temporary delays of video music and other files shared between computers using such technologies as BitTorrent . Comcast compared its practices to a traffic ramp control light that regulates the entry of additional vehicles onto a freeway during rush hour. One would not claim that the car is blocked or prevented from entering the freeway rather it is briefly delayed the company s statement said. Marvin Ammori the general counsel for Free Press said Comcast s behavior is the second major example of an service provider overstepping its authority in an attempt to quash competition. In March the FCC fined Madison River Communications for blocking calls by competitor Vonage which provided free calls over the Internet. Ammori said that by interfering with video transfers Comcast is trying to protect its television and On Demand video services. BitTorrent said Comcast should respond by increasing bandwidth on its networks and upgrading its systems rather than limiting how customers use its service. It s like putting a Band Aid on the problem to achieve a short term fix said Ashwin Navin co founder and president of San Francisco based BitTorrent.

Websites Copyright The Washington Post Company User Agreement and Privacy Policy Rights and Permissions Help Contact Us I ran through the options and took a few photos of the new and notable sections which I ll describe after the jump. Overall it feels like every inch of the software has been updated. Instead of an empty box that plays music and movies from another computer it s definitely starting to feel like a standalone settop box capable of quite a bit on its own. Here are a few shots of areas I hadn t seen mentioned or explored in the Macworld previews Flickr in the Photos section The Flickr feature allows you to navigate a single user s recent photos favorites and photo sets but it doesn t use the Flickr API to log you fully into the service. Without the API you won t be able to view private photos or view photos from your contacts friends and there doesn t seem to be a way to even follow RSS feeds of photos from Flickr. Still it s a nice way to view photos if you re a user of Flickr and have friends on the service. HD Movie Rentals To test out the movie rental feature I rented a few HD movies to check download speeds and download priorities. Two things jumped out at me one is download speed and the other is the lack of simultaneous downloads . Even on my top speed Verizon FiOS Mbit line downloads were quite sluggish. Judging from the first hour of downloading HD movies will take several hours about hours is my guess to download in full even over broadband. This may be slow servers on Apple s end of things due to the new feature coming out and causing some slowdowns thanks to demand because my connection can normally download a Gb file in less than an hour. On the positive side the HD rentals being downloaded had enough video downloaded in about minutes to begin real time playback of movies but I didn t try it out with a movie to see if the download rate kept up with the viewing time. I quickly noticed that only one movie could be downloaded at a time and the one that took priority was the most recently purchased one. Even on the Downloads page under Settings I could not change the order if I wanted my first purchase to complete before my nd or rd. I was happy to see that while movies were being downloaded my connection wasn t being saturated and I could browse and use the web normally on other networked computers. Podcasts I m pretty impressed with the wide array of choices in the Podcast view and how easy it is to browse there are popular shows HD video animation and other interesting genres shown front and center. Looking at the vast array of podcast choices I looked up a dozen of my favorites and found a dozen more I d never heard of that looked good this was the first time I kind of realized that podcasting could become the new Cable TV offering thousands of options for anyone looking to learn something or be entertained and it was all free . I noticed a lot of larger podcast tv studio networks get their own option and major players like HBO seem to be copying their video on demand content into the video podcast format. Ordering from the couch Something I hadn t seen mentioned in the Apple TV previews was that aside from buying and renting movies you can buy pretty much everything else on the iTunes Music Store. You can buy albums and whole seasons of TV Shows in addition to the movie stuff. I didn t notice any way to buy just a song or a single episode of anything. Also once you store your iTunes Music Store password you can save it and make purchasing new items a one click process. AirTunes It was a nice surprise to see AirTunes in the new version of Apple TV. I had no idea they were adding this capability and though it seemed a little weird at first can t you just stream music from your Apple TV to your computer instead of the other way around I realized this could be a cool feature if a friend comes over with a laptop and just wants to stream music quickly and easily. Also another cool feature is that the Apple remote is functional and actually pauses and advances music on your connected iTunes computer remotely from your couch. Conclusions Overall in the short time I ve been able to play with Apple TV . I ve seen a lot to like and the biggest change is definitely the feeling that this is now a standalone device that I can use to browse photos and look for podcasts and it s not simply a container for my downloaded music and movies like it was before. As predicted the Apple TV device did suddenly become a Pay Per View box in that most of the menu options are geared towards browsing buying and downloading other content with just a tiny option at the bottom to look at your stuff. Most of the menus are definitely geared towards other new stuff. It ll be interesting to see how Apple TV evolves when the next update comes along. by Matt Haughey February in News Comments What s the video and audio quality like on the HD movie rentals Posted by Sean at Feb PM I just played the Matrix HD back and it looks great at p. It definitely looks better than a standard DVD and I d say maybe some of the background elements aren t as sharp as a p hi def disc but it looked good enough that I doubt most people would notice much difference between p and p. Posted by Matt Haughey at Feb PM Good review. Just wanted to add some notes. You said I didn t notice any way to buy just a song or a single episode of anything. That one is easy just choose a song or single episode. It will bring you to a detail page with more information about episodes at least and will have a nice big Buy button. You also said I could not change the order if I wanted my first purchase to complete before my nd or rd. You can select any item in the download queue and it will move it to the top of the queue. I realized this because a down arrow appeared when i scrolled to the inactive downloads. Posted by Mark at Feb AM You can select any item in the download queue and it will move it to the top of the queue. I realized this because a down arrow appeared when i scrolled to the inactive downloads. Oh yeah I learned that shortly afterwards. My first instinct was to hit pause on the currently downloading file to get the nd or rd file to start downloading instead but it appears to work backwards from there instead.
