I think congress is out of touch with internet issues. The analogy AOL could have used in presenting the argument that cable companies shouldn't be allowed to monopolize internet access over their cables, would be the comparison of channels offered to subscribers of basic cable. What if cable companies only offered broadcasts produced by film studios they owned? Would this be in the consumer's best interest? AOL is going to have to morph itself into a new business model and fast, because that is what the cable cos. are doing by prepping to become isp's.
