There is already a 2 speed Internet.

Pay $10 a month and get one speed, pay $50 a month and get a
higher one.

Roland, why dont you just accept, and not keep confusing people,
that there is big structural difference between differing speeds as
per what content user pays, and differing speeds as per what content
provider pays, and the Net neutrality issue deals with the second
issue alone. You dont have to agree with the NN guys on what is
right and what is wrong, but why keep muddying established
definitions.<br>

What people want is the $50 Internet for $10, and for everyone in
the country to be able to watch a High Definition[3] TV programme
at once.

No, that is not at all what NN advoactes want, and you know that.
This is now gone to the levels of outright misguiding propoganda. <br>
