Caltech computer scientists have developed a new data transfer protocol for the Internet fast enough to download a full-length DVD movie in less than five seconds. If you own stock in Blockbuster Video, better sell now before it's too late.

Worse than that, when this was published in March, I was working with a start-up doing video streaming and video compression. Although "there can never be enough bandwidth" may still hold true, why go to the expense and effort of compressing video if it may not be necessary soon?
