The 30 minute audio Podcast "Telecommunications in Australia", by Keri
Phillips, ABC Radio National "Rear Vision" program, is available online at:
<http://www.abc.net.au/rn/rearvision/stories/2011/3191296.htm>

This puts the National Broadband Network a historical context:

"Everything to do with communications in Australia has always been
highly political; the National Broadband Network provides the latest
evidence. Rear Vision looks at the story of communication in Australia
and compares the evolution of the internet here with the rest of the
world."

Speakers include: Professor Jock Given, Institute for Social Research,
Swinburne University; Paul Budde, BuddeComm, Dr Catherine Middleton,
Ryerson University (Toronto):
