Internet Broadband can be described as a way to share information or any chunks of data that lies on the vast network known as the internet. The term ‘Broadband’ explains the method that is used in conjunction with this data in order for it to be sent and retrieved. In short and easy terms, you could explain broadband by saying that it was the prime successor of dialup modems. During the dawn of the internet, where houses were beginning to get connected using first-generation modems, these little box would allow a transfer that varied between a couple of kilobytes per second to around fifty kilobytes per second; with broadband, these transfers can vary from hundreds of kilobytes per second to literally thousands of kilobytes per second.

No single company was able to grab the title of ‘monopoly,’ thus every one of them were able to keep on existing (which could not have beenpossible through a monopoly) and altogether, we can classify this group of companies as the Broadband Marketplace. An easy way to define a Broadband Marketplace is to think of it as a giant mall where you can go shop for the broadband distributor of your choice, instead of having to deal with a single company that controls all of the market.
