Re: first of many?

Looking at Speedtest.net global rankings, we're in the middle of the pack.

well, that may satisfy you, but I prefer to be on the leading edge.

on the other hand, the incumbents are probably very satisfied with middle of the pack.

Then move to a fiber deployed town and get your 50Mb+ service. It's not like these other countries you tout have universal 100Mb service. Just like here, some high rises have the great cheap service we all dream about while in the sticks it's slower than snot.

Meanwhile, Americans by and large, don't give a shit about speed. They buy on price so even if 50Mb service were universally available, that doesn't mean people will buy it.

I had 50/20 with VZ and downgraded to 20/5. I'd downgrade to 3/.768 if it were cheap enough and avail. over fiber.
