You couldn't use a 10Gbps connection. What are you going to connect to that can supply data at that speed, and what are you going to do with the data when you receive it?

These channels don't exist, and even if they did VM would still have do carriage deals to carry them. Would you be willing to pay 10 times as much for your TV service?

Because VOD is switched to you, it uses tiny bandwidth. The number of viewing choices doesn't affect the bandwidth required. (You already have thousands of choices)

In other words, a quarter of the capacity of coax (using current technology)
