isn't the 'internet should use more than 80/443' really: "Some
compelling use case should be found for more than 2 ports" ? Or
perhaps more clearly: "What application is written that is getting

(aside from edonkey which Arbor always shows as a huge user of bandwidth)

(btw, it would be nice to use more ports, if there are applications
and users of said applications that want to do that...)
