Internet, the future.

Maybe slight off-topic at first, but I was wondering about our fellas out there
and due to reasons like regularity, option to see spocast, development,
the conditions of your internet conection.

Here in Portugal I pay 35 € month for ADSL 24 hours internet.

1 year ago I had a speed of 2Mbit (2.000Kb) and 10GB international traffic.
Now, my server upgraded to 18 Mbit (18.000Kb) and Unlimited traffic,
for the same price. I'd say we're developing fast and to good conditions.

So I'm wondering... around the world,

What are your internet conditions? (price, velocity and traffic?).
Do you think your country has good conditions and is improving good?

After that first question, and now, on topic:
Do you think Internet is the future of football? People will want to watch the game they want when they want in the computer, as conditions improve. Will clubs start making profit out of "internet revenues"? Do you think that's possible?

That is surely an off-topic but I will answer.
That is the future, but only when "media centers" will enter the living room more than it is today.
After that happens, that will be the way people watch games.
