Neither. We managed to survive long enough without it for it to be a necessity and it is too easily available to be a luxury

It has become a necessity. For over two hundred years famous economists have been saying the earth can only support so many people. And then some technology comes along that makes people more productive.
Have you checked out the Math and Science category? Some of those kids are really really bright, and in the future will be able to make incredible progress in the world and improve the lives of billions of people. All because they are more able to learn and exchange ideas.
There was once a time when a tractor was a luxury. And running water. And dental anesthesia. Life just keeps on getting better.

necessity more than luxury. Thats like saying is tv a necessity? yes and no cos without tv ppl would get all traumatized n shi* but after a while they ll get over it and probably be doin more constructive things. Witout the internet u have to work harder for the things u wanna know or do, but with the net u can chek ur email, look for work, shopppin all that stuff. Nowdays people need the internet to make life a little less stressing in the fun or work sense.

I think that the internet has become a necessity for some people. It is a place where they can access information, learn and share new things,meet up with old friends and family, make new ones, conduct business, shop for things,listen to music, watch a film, play a game and generally have all their entertainment needs met.

Internet is a necessity to people nowadays, those who need to use it for work or study, even play. but it is a luxury for those people who do not require internet in their daily lives. (most probably the elderly) since Internet was not available to them for most of their lives, they can live without it. and if it was available to them, it would be a bonus.

It was a luxury - 10 years or so ago - but now it's increasingly become a necessity. Email, shopping, work; if it were turned off now I really have no idea what I'd do. (Sad, but true.)

I would say it's a necessity. You need the internet for a lot of things.

It's a luxury I think. For years and years people have gotten along fine without it.

it is a luxury in that you could suvive without it, a neccessity because life is easier with it in the 21st century, just as cars aren't a neccesity but how many people choose to go without and walk or ride a bike instead especially when it is only a short distance involved

I would have to say a luxury. If we didn't have it now everyone would go crazy. It's there but we honestly don't really need it!
