There is no guarantee for a "real Internet access". It could be exactly like your cable companies, and websites your channel. Hey you don't get Al-jazeera. Well, tough luck we don't like them, and won't carry them on our internet package.

And unlike with tv in the old days having only a few channels, the limitation of internet access is almost entirely non-technical and artificial. Aside from a little caching efficiency, it's pure market manipulation.
