The full statement of the FCC Chairman before the Senate yesterday is here (Acrobat document), but one section that caught my eye was this: Last year, former Chairman Powell and previous staffer Ken Ferree submitted a report to Congress concluding that a la carte and tiered pricing models (such as a family tier) were not economically feasible and were not in consumers’ interest.
