IPTVision > AT&T: ”˜We support multicast must-carry’

[Digital TV Facts: The Latest | The switch to digital television] AT&T supports rules that would give cable channel slots to local digital TV multicast services, according to a senior executive: “We’re more than happy to put this programming on our network,” Robert Quinn, senior vice president for federal regulatory affairs at AT&T, said in a telephone interview. “We support multicast must-carry.” Quinn’s remarks in a Reuters interview on Tuesday would appear to contradict an FCC filing from the company last week, reported in Multichannel News: “It is AT&T’s belief that decisions affecting carriage of programming offered by local commercial broadcast stations should be subject to commercial discussions between content owners and video providers,” the company said in a June 9 Federal Communications Commission filing, adding that such discussions were taking place.

The Latest Television News and Info: But from the torpor of the opening episode, with Luka and Sam going in search of her brat, to the numbing story line of Pratt and his father, to being subjected to Morris as a full-time character and Kristen Johnston's obnoxiously officious nurse, there's little for me to like. John Leguizamo does bring some energy to the show — what I've seen of him — but each time I check into ER these days, it's like I've taken a tranquilizer and it's all I can do to stay conscious.

For pairs of well-known endpoints often over predictable port pairs, such as BGP or between web servers and well-known large-scale caches, increases in the path bandwidth- delay product of a connection have sufficiently increased the receive window space that off-path third parties can brute-force generate a viable RST sequence number.
