Yes, everyone had what you are talking about - its called Cable television. The tiered internet is the interactive version of that. You are missing the picture, let me try painting it for you, and for everyone has to face this question - The internet is not netflix. Its not amazon, or facebook, or even google. ALL of those are just webpages, or websites sitting on the internet. And they are Just like my site - mysite.somewhere.com. OR the sites that many of my country men could and will make, when they finally come online. My spice selling family friend, could come online and make a site to sell spices for example. And when they do - the instantly are accessible to every human being connected to the internet. (And quite a few robots too). THAT'S the internet. vs just new cable television.
