Default Does Everyone Have a Right to the Internet?

Generally, you have the option of one or two cable internet services as well as
about two or three digital subscriber line (DSL) services through phone companies.
As there is a semi-monopoly in the business, each broadband company tend to charge
very high prices for internet -- usually around triple that of normal dial-up
internet services. Given the financial model of internet services is a monthly
payment setup, any sort of price peaks can be rather costly to the average consumer.
For many, as I see it, this is enough to discourage upgrading to the "fast lane" and
either stay with dialup internet, or not subscribe to any internet at all.
