What does "net neutrality" have to do with wireless mics?

If net neutrality applies to signals being carried across fiber, then it should also apply to signals being carried across wireless, since the "spectrum" is just a replacement for the physical fiber.

Saying a bunch of spectrum is to be set aside for a specific use (eg wireless mics) is like saying Verizon can set aside special access on its fiber for Google's traffic. Arguing for both is, of course, acceptable.

So if wireless mics want to use spectrum, they should have no better (and no worse) privileges than any other data traffic that wants to use the spectrum. To do that, they should become "IP-capable".

(And yes, I would extend this to television and radio as well)
