The Hottest Internet Video Topic of 2008...
...will be Net Neutrality. I don't think the average consumer really understood this topic when it was front and center in 2006, and it has somewhat stayed in the background away from mainstream media throughout 2007. However, as today's articles on Comcast's efforts to manage traffic running across its network point out, the rapid rise in video consumption (broadcast, live events, movies - not just UGC) over ISP networks will make this topic a very hot one as we head into 2008. Every player in the ecosystem has something to win or lose in this debate - consumers, media companies, carriers, cable companies, etc. Shouldn't be long before it hits Congress again :)
