>The big problem with a lack of Net Neutrality is when there's a lack of competition

You just summed up the exact situation in the US. Most areas have a giant ISP and some smaller ISPs serving more limited areas. There's effectively no choice for consumers though, since many of the smaller ISPs have to use infrastructure of the local ISP monopoly to deliver service.

Well, that's indeed a big problem, and very big reason why Net Neutrality is important. I live in Netherland and I have half a dozen broadband providers to choose from, including one that strongly believes in freedom of information, so I'm fine without legally mandated Net Neutrality.
