Re: is this better for SK Broadband?
Well, manglement at SK Broadband could return to the negotiating table, but if that happens, they will be no longer be in a position to mandate 10x carrier prices.
And they will lose face which, contrary to our Western civilization politicians, is anathema to many Asian cultures (painting Asian in broad strokes, here).
So I feel confident that SK Broadband is going to watch Twitch leave without flinching. I do wonder, though : how much does it actually cost to transmit a megabyte over fiber ? I mean, the router is plugged in whether or not you're transmitting. How much more energy does it take ? I realize that it should take more, but how much more ?
