Re: not true competitors, chance companies that took a shot .. What are you talking about...
VoIP/IPTV/Netflix etc. ALL have to have some form of connection to the Internet so that people can actually use it.
The Internet connection is not intended to be a 'we own the last mile, therefore pay us toll fees' for access.
Customers pay for the use - ISPs are making profit off of that. ISPs want more profit (why not) and would like to make the Internet a walled garden where information flow is
a) Controlled (well they do have to manage the network)
b) Paid for (duh) - problem is that it ISPs want payment from both customers (who use the Internet) and content providers. If there were no content providers, there would be no customers.
c) Make money off of every piece (it is a capital society) - resell your point-click data, data mining, demographics, NebuAd... where does it end.
