The essential point is: if people have the bandwidth, they fill it, sometimes with uses we haven't dreamed up yet. In the USA at least, creativity and productivity are _often_ bandwidth-limited (that's documented). Open the door and you get a positive feedback loop of: opportunity -> creativity -> perceived need -> services -> opportunity, leading to More Money For Everyone, including ISPs.
