Google, Verizon and Net neutrality: should your company care? Why or why not?

Google and Verizon are proposing to allow content providers to pay more for higher-speed delivery, intensifying the long-simmering debate over "net neutrality."

If the opportunity exists to pay for "preferred" delivery becomes a widespread reality, will it help or hurt your company's online business efforts? What about your customers and partners?
