"The internets are full" - this story comes back so often that I expect to see Romero doing a zombie flick on it soon - maybe "Night of the Living Intertubes":

The digital Disneyland of the future -- where we freely work and play online -- may be at risk. Why? Because, some argue, broadband carriers can't support it. The Internet's "free ride" culture has led to more people downloading gigabytes of data at practically no cost. Even if broadband infrastructure's capacity doubled or tripled, there's no avoiding the equivalent of an abrupt work stoppage.

I should start up an over/under pool each time I see this story, trying to peg the next time it will pop up...
