TV.

Surprisingly, this appears to be true. There is apparently some pretty significant angst going on right now because the cable companies are at their bandwidth limits on copper with the way things are configured. Consequently, they are compressing HD signals to the point that they are starting to suck.

Of course, the issue isn't really fiber vs. copper. It's the fact that the fiber folks provisioned more bandwidth on the backhaul.
