I promised myself I was going to avoid this debate because it always leads to the same retarded arguments. None the less, broadband is a luxury item, since when was playing computer games and downloading pr0n needed for the average family. We have needs, which the average family should be satisfising before broadband.

NZ and broadband in Nz does have to compete against australia and the rest of the world.There are some businesses which require broadband.

If NZ don't have the potential to compete with the rest of the market at least telecom should provide us a decent broadband .


Im sure most of the average families isn't able to afford $60-$70 for broadband internet.

I certainly wouldn't be able to afford $90 for ihug 40+40GB plan unless I share the connection against 3 other people in our flat.

maybe if I lived in a hostel i would let people use my internet by giving them a wireless usb adaptor and hook it up with a router and ask them if they do require broadband they can pay me $10 a month.

I am waiting to see whats to come later this year..


Hopefully we will see something interesting
