# The Internet is going to get a whole lot slower next week - Host: [9to5mac.com](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/hosts/9to5mac.com/) - Saved: January 8, 2008 (2008-01-08T10:43:22Z) - Record: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/ad1c65026397/ - JSON: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/ad1c65026397.json ## From the page (probably an excerpt, not Jamie's words) However, next week, Apple will almost definitely launch its iTunes movie rental store, and millions of people will start downloading like they never have before.

This is a huge amount of data. ## Facts - Kind: [Page](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/kinds/page/) ## Same host - [Turn Leopard's Screen Sharing into a better Apple Remote Desktop lite](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/0959e35cfab0/) (9to5mac.com, December 15, 2007) - [Opera coming to the iPhone](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/54937b406d7a/) (9to5mac.com, January 9, 2008) - [New iPhone applications to appear tonight](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/d92c26ef525f/) (9to5mac.com, March 6, 2008) - [Apple updates Time Machine and Airport - Now working together](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/f7dc2e7bb991/) (9to5mac.com, March 19, 2008) - [Any joy in the Zune division?](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/395860a22da3/) (9to5mac.com, June 4, 2008) ## Saved the same week - [Measuring Cup: A Free OS X Recipe Manager](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/a7c54c694f98/) (macapper.com, January 7, 2008) - [Skin type](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/2a84a07d88a2/) (dooce.com, January 8, 2008) - [PDF Now an ISO Standard](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/020b2ec7e9dd/) (photoshopnews.com, January 8, 2008) - [Apple's preps iTunes 7.6 with support for movie rentals](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/5230406a0ca1/) (appleinsider.com, January 8, 2008) - [Microsoft To Buy Norwegian Search Firm Fast Search & Transfer For $1.23 Billion](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/e60674d98fc5/) (gigaom.com, January 8, 2008) ## Elsewhere - Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://9to5mac.com/2008/01/08/the-internet-is-going-to-get-a-whole-lot-slower-next-week/
