They’ve been running since 2014, but this is the first year they’ve been awarded to the best value NBN broadband plans. Product providers don’t pay to be in the running and we don’t play favourites. Our judges base their decision on hard-nosed calculations of value to the consumer, using Mozo’s extensive product database and research capacity. We identify the most important features of each product, group each product into like-for-like comparisons, and then calculate which are better value than most. Winning a Mozo Experts Choice Award means that a product is in the top 10% of products in terms of value for money. ● For product providers, it’s a third-party endorsement of their product. ● For consumers, it’s a sign that a product is among the leaders and is worthy of consideration.

Historic rationale of the USO 32 Appendix B. Issues Paper Questions 39 Public Version | Page 2 1.1 The Universal Service Obligation (USO) remains rooted in principles more applicable to the analogue era of telecommunications. It is predominantly focused on the delivery of fixed voice handsets and voice calls over fixed line copper connections. The widespread deployment and use of mobile, data and broadband services now render it increasingly inappropriate. 1.2 Three decades after the genesis of the USO the industry is vastly different from that which existed in the late 1980s: (a) Whilst Telstra retains a dominant position in the market, especially in regional Australia, competitive forces and regulation ensure that customers have access to genuine choice in a way that was not possible in the 1980s.

(“Vuze”), the undersigned e-mailed the attached material to Aaron Goldberger and Ian Dillner, both legal advisors to Chairman Kevin J. Martin. The material reflects the results of a recent study conducted by Vuze, in which Vuze created and made available to its users a software plug-in that measures the rate at which network communications are being interrupted by reset messages. The Vuze plug-in measures all network interruptions, and cannot differentiate between reset activity occurring in the ordinary course and reset activity that is artificially interposed by a network operator. While Vuze, therefore, has drawn no firm conclusions from its network monitoring study, it believes the results are significant enough to raise them with network operators and commence a dialog regarding their network management practices. Accordingly, Vuze has sent the attached letters to four of the network operators whose rate of reset activity appeared to be higher than that of many others. While Vuze continues to believe that Commission involvement in this Marlene H.
