Learning Lessons: Net Neutrality and the Future of Online Education - McNeal Maddox, ClickZ

The end of net neutrality would inevitably lead to online education providers paying more to deliver video course content - which would mean an increase in operating costs that would be bundled into millions of students' fees. The increased cost would stifle enrollments at a critical moment in the growth of the online education sector. A requirement to pay ISPs for increased bandwidth to stream video to millions of students is an added expense that many online schools may not be willing to pay. Brands like Udemy, Khan Academy, Udacity, Codecademy, and General Assembly have already made significant investments in process and infrastructure to deliver streaming video course content. http://www.clickz.com/clickz/column/2358039/learning-lessons-net-neutrality-and-the-future-of-online-education
