Areas such as mine (in MA and "underserved") do not justify the millions of dollars to provide DSL or cable when the customer base wouldn't even recoup their expenses, let alone turn a profit.
Would I like DSL, cable or (hahahahaha) FIOS? Absolutely. Will they be available in this century? Not a chance. I choose to live where my nearest neighbor is several hundred feet away, and I'm surrounded by trees rather than concrete walls. I must therefore accept the negatives. HughesNet was and is the only option for me, and thusfar I'm more than satisfied with it. |
