Re: Why US broadband adoption rate is lower

said by Nuts:

The problem with this is that the providers keep putting these new services in areas already served and not expanding to areas not served. Until they start moving into unserved areas, we will not see much upward movement in broadband penetration.
There are a lot of providers which have been doing this though. Earlier this decade, Comcast made a huge push to offer cable modem service to many parts of suburban Philadelphia which could not previously get any broadband. Eventually, FIOS followed them. I know this because I was living in that area at the time and I am sure that this wasn't the only area involved in such an expansion.

But, you just made my point. FIOS followed cable modems into an area already severed. Was this area also already served by DSL also.
