Netflix, AT&T reach deal to allow faster, smoother streaming

@hpmsrm (Phil) should be a happy camper, now that Netflix has paid AT&T for access to AT&T's servers.  This interconnection agreement should allow for fatser and better quality streams.  It was signed in May but the accessers began this week.  Enjoy!

So much for net neutrality, seems criminal to me. Mob style throttling, we can thank the FCC for watching this happen.

I have 1080P and 1080 SD everytime I start Netflix.  I think the SD means Super HD...

I would not blame the FCC for this.  I would blame the courts who threw out the legality of Net Neutrallity laws.  Supposedly the FCC is rewriting them.  My gut says that the AT&T's, Comcasts' Verizons and such have greased the system to allow this to happen.  I will say that those firms are no longer in the FCC's back pockets.  So, they tried the courts, lol.
