Future of the internet

what do you think the future for the internet will hold ? I personally believe the major companies like Time Warner, Cox and so on.. will control the net as they do the current TV..

Once the bandwidth limits are no longer limits for real time broadcasting.. I think these companies will provide multi media boxes that you will browse the internet and watch TV on.. I think the TV stations will merge into major media outlets, maybe something in the format as what AOL is.. but 100's of these sites with their own programming, that will be bought as subscription service much like cable TV subscription works now..

Of course there would still be the internet but I think as technology advances these companies will take more and more control of the internet.

what are your thoughts on the future of the internet?
