comcast serves most cites, suburbs, and a good deal of the semi rural area in Qwest territory.
There are some major cities in Qwest territory, just like there are in Verizon territory. FIOS for the most part is an urban/suburban thing. While I can understand Qwest not wanting to string fiber in rural areas, why can't they do anything in their urban/suburban areas?

Because is some states they service like Colorado the law says they have to provide it to everyone, or no one. So if they start stringing fiber they have to do fiber to every one.
