What is tiered service?
Tiered service does not apply to what internet subscribers pay for their access. It applies to what content owners, such as people or organizations operating websites, would pay internet service providers for hosting their material online. Just as customers can now choose different access speeds at different prices, under a tiered system content owners would also choose how fast their websites and other online data would be transmitted across the internet. Critics say such a system would allow ISPs to charge twice for the same service.
