Special couriers began delivering special weekly packages of web content to thousands of homes across Havana, Thursday. Available for a weeky payment of $1 (€0.9), the packages comprise of popular web content, such as reality tv shows, sports programmes, mobile phone apps and online magazines. Each week technicians compile a collection of web content and put it on hard disks which are delivered throughout the whole country: first via interprovincial buses and then by couriers. Around 1 million homes are posted the packages within 24 hours. It is estimated that around 30,000 people are involved in the alternative internet business. According to some estimations, only 5 percent of the Cuban homes are connected to the internet. As a result, 'the weekly package' business is carried out outside the legal framework.
