Anyone who knows me will tell you I'm far from the TCNZ supporter, but I have worked on both sides of the fence, as both a bandwidth consumer and a supplier, and I have been privy to the financial aspects of buying and selling bandwidth from both perspectives.
I wish people in New Zealand would stop pretending bandwidth is cheap and/or cost almost zero and expecting vast amounts of resource for little cost. It doesn't work that way. Anywhere.
