More than half of people with Internet access use high-speed service today. The problem is that the cost of these services is much higher than it is in other countries, while the service is much slower. Now, a few initiatives traveling around Capitol Hill will make it even more of a monopoly industry. But Clark doesn’t think it’s all doom and gloom. In spite of what appears to be very anti-consumer measures going on, Clark thinks this is just a brief stop on our way to much more options and cheaper prices. We are on the edge of getting high speed Internet service from all kinds of alternative ways, including over the phone line and through our power companies. One thing to remember is not to sign a contract for high-speed service right now. If you do, you won’t be able to take advantage of the great offers when they come along. So, keep it month to month for now.
