Guest Fishtank Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,1972540,00.html#ixzz0jzFHcPzg The CRS-3, a network routing system, is able to stream every film ever made, from Hollywood to Bombay, in under four minutes. That's right — the whole universe of films digested in less time than it takes to boil an egg. That may sound like good news for consumers, but it could be the business equivalent of an earthquake for the likes of Universal Studios and Paramount Pictures.

joew Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 well the whole 'can stream every movie ever in less time than to boil an egg' is just an example of the throughput it has. doesn't mean it's made to do so... I doubt movie studios really give a fuck who is the article directed to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaosmachine Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 This is kind of like saying that a 2TB hard drive can hold 3000 full length divx movies. Doesn't mean anything. Hollywood isn't suddenly fucked because of a new router. They've been fucked since bittorrent made it possible for any noob to grab a movie in less time than it takes to drive to blockbuster or the theater.

Guest Fishtank Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 that's a pretty hyperbolic statement but still, the router is fast as shit The Cisco CRS-3 triples the capacity of its predecessor, the Cisco CRS-1 Carrier Routing System, with up to 322 Terabits per second, which enables the entire printed collection of the Library of Congress to be downloaded in just over one second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosmachine Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 In 2004, Cisco released the 92 terabit CRS-1, which enabled the entire printed collection of the Library of Congress to be downloaded in just over three seconds. That was 6 years ago. So Cisco released something 3 times faster and Time says "it could be the business equivalent of an earthquake for the likes of Universal Studios and Paramount Pictures." It's bullshit. Props to the Cisco PR team for getting all this mainstream coverage, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
