| in the US, cable is king
For now and the foreseeable future, cable will be king in the US.
Only incumbent telco running FTTH is Verizon, and even if they ran fiber into every house they serve, cable would still be the dominant provider.
Until other Telcos start running FTTH, cable will continue to beat fiber in the US.... -- Welcome to cat noise Wednsday!! |
