Interconnection Discrimination: A Two-Sided Markets Perspective
We first motivate a methodological approach to network economics research using tools from Industrial Organization (IO). We then demonstrate the utility of such models in light of an increasingly important problem of interconnection failures that includes network neutrality problem. In particular, we focus on a subset of the problem by focusing on direct interconnection failures when ISPs price...
متن کاملPrice Discrimination and Competition in Two-Sided Markets: Evidence from the Spanish Local TV Industry
In this paper, we empirically test the relation between price discrimination and product market competition in a two-sided market environment using a new data set of Spanish local TV stations that provides information on subscription and advertising prices per station for 1996, 1999 and 2002. Due to changes in regulation during this period affecting the degree of local market competition, we us...

Network effects are captured within a vertical differentiation framework. Under single-homing there exists an interior equilibrium where networks exhibit asymmetric sizes and both firms enjoy positive profits. When all ag...
