as for carriers pipes...will, if multicast was seriously taken up then eg OS updates could be streamed out on regular updates
Given that a lot of these updates are happening in the background without any interaction with the users, I'd think they'd be ideal for network-un-neutral traffic shaping, throttle them when people are doing something else, open them up at 3 AM. In a more reasonable world, I agree that multicasting Windows Update would make sense, but that would require a whole lot of agreements from people who aren't inclined to agree. Also remember that multicasting only gets you so far, and I would be surprised if you could multicast over the wireless last mile more efficiently than unicasting. R's, John
