Re: in the US, cable is king
said by N3OGH  :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.... maybe in the middle/eastern states but not ANYWHERE that qworst(qwest) has its stronghold. in the few areas that qwest does have fibre it is capped rediculously low(5mbit) heck dsl can be faster than that.

That's because telcos are immune to gravity and only remain in place because they suck. |
