Marching toward the inevitable

[Commentary] There is no doubt in my mind that, over the next year or possibly two, broadband service providers will begin offering service options based not only on bandwidth but on quality of service. Though dreaded by the Net neutrality crowd, these so-called tiered services are inevitable in my mind because there is simply too much at stake in the broadband business to ignore the need to treat some traffic differently.
