It is becoming obvious that a standard T1 circuit will not be able to cope with the growth of bandwidth applications. For example a T1 circuit is 1.5 megabits/sec whereby downloading a three minute piece of music is 3MB or 24 megabits.
Uploading or downloading a digital photograph would use 2 MB or 16 megabits. A Power Point presentation is 10 MB or 80 megabits. If several office workers were to transmit a Power Point presentation at the same time the T1 connection would slow down for three or more minutes.

I agree, T1 services will not be sufficient enough for large businesses. But T1 services are incredibly viable for small businesses and home consumers. Don't underestimate the bandwidth of a T1 line! T1 Survey

I also agree, while T1 is great D3 is so much better and more capable to handle everything. http://getds3.com/is a company to look out for.
