When I first glanced at the Federal Communications Commission’s “Measuring Broadband America - July 2012,” this report seemed pretty positive overall. But after I got past the complimentary prose about more reliable and faster connections, I realized that two things were missing from this report: an assessment of the value of the often-quite-expensive 100 Mbps connections praised by the study’s authors, and any acknowledgment of dwindling competition in the Internet-access market.
