Net Parity -- Still A Long Way To Go

Greetings,
For those of you who have already seen the information below, please forgive the duplication. I just want to make sure that in the current debates about net access, we are all starting on the same page. Most of you are aware of at least one of the studies, reports, or sites, but the reason I put this little list together is to make sure that you get a fuller picture of the situation, by seeing all of them. Thank you.

I don't agree with all the conclusions, but these are very interesting and important articles/reports. Please be sure to at least browse them. By the way, they are mostly original material, not the summarized stuff people have been reading in newspapers and magazines
