The CRTC has set the pricing for the usage sensitive component for wholesale internet service.<\/p>\n

In Decision 2011-44<\/a>, the Commission determined that smaller Internet Service Providers (ISPs) will get a 15% discount off the major carriers’ retail usage sensitive rates when the ISPs subscribe to telco gateway access services or cable third-party internet access.<\/p>\n

In an interview yesterday, I said that I don’t think this means the end of smaller ISPs. The ISPs have had a lot of time to prepare for this decision, the last component needed to implement usage sensitive billing. The better ISPs have looked at ways to evolve their business model and network configuration.<\/p>\n

UBB does not mean the end of flat rate internet, but to be successful, ISPs will have to know more about their customers and work hard to balance their customer mix. Internet service is joining the rest of telecommunications services that have both fixed and variable wholesale cost components.<\/p>\n

Long distance prices may have come down dramatically, but there is still a marginal cost for every call you make. Still, there are a number of companies that offer flat rate plans, unlimited calling province-wide, nation-wide, North America or even to many countries overseas. How can they do this?<\/p>\n

An all you can eat buffet owner has to balance their customer load; the restaurant needs to attract some patrons that don’t subscribe to the plate loading antics of the high school football players that\u00a0are also\u00a0regular customers. I wrote last week<\/a> that ISPs need to know more about their customers and who they want to attract.<\/p>\n

It may be counter-intuitive, but the result should be that consumers will see more differentiation between ISPs as they stake out their turf.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
