Internet is one of the best and fast media today that spreads information to people at all corners of the world. This is gaining good popularity in the developing countries. However, there it is very costly today. Do you think it should be available free? If not immediately, do you foresee anytime when this service will be absolutely free?

Most definitely the internet should stay free. It does not belong to any one person or group, so it should not be subjected to some kind of fee or tax. The key is to keep the greedy fingers of government off of it, they are dying to tax it in some way.

I think that first talking on the phone is going to be free and after these will expand to the Internet... because new technologies apear and the Internet will be used like a background for those services which you will find in the near future as usefull as you find Internet now... everything loses value... Internet is going to be soon like the MSdos Language is for a PC right now...

I don't see it being free. Just because everyone uses it, doesn't mean that companies are going to stop making their profits from providing people with service. If anything, they're gonna reap more benefits as the popularity grows.

I don't think it is going to be free. The companies are making lot of money so then why they should sacrifice their earning.

I think it would be virtually impossible for the intenet to not charge a fee.
