1. The Internet access cost index is based on the 20 hour/month peak rate Internet basket as calculated by the OECD. See OECD (1999c) and <http://www.oecd.org/dsti/sti/it/cm>.

2. In addition to country domains (.fr for France, .uk for the United Kingdom, etc.), Internet hosts also include generic top-level domains (gTLDs) such as .com and .org which have been redistributed to countries based on registrations.
