To pay top dollar for an inferior product. I guess it's the american way!
Didn't read it, did you?

"... cable will gobble up 75% of all new customer additions next year, due to slower DSL speeds and limited deployment of FiOS and U-Verse."

Yeah, you let me know when people can subscribe to something that doesn't exist!
Cable is on the pole(or in the ground), DSL is too slow, FiOS and Uverse are nowhere to be seen... What will you do?
DUH! Get cable!

No blistering symmetrical fiber available?
Well, not alot you or I can do about it, is there?
Move to Santa Clara, CA...
I agree for the most part.

Santa Clarita:

ADSL: 3-6Mbps (I qualify for 3Mbps) - $40/month w/o phone service. $25/month with POTS packages (read $80/month after POTS package)

Uverse: 1.5-18Mbps - $55 month for standalone 10Mbps (I think is the minimum standalone). $90/month for a triple play including VoIP (which is still non existent in SoCal ) which would mean add another $25/month between items not included and taxes/unfees.

FiOS: Santa Clarita is an AT&T exlusive valley - no VZ here

Cable: TWC - $47/month for HSI (6-10Mbps) standalone

If I was to go for the absolute bottom pricing - it would be ADSL. However, since I need phone service too, Cable bundle is less expensive than the AT&T bundle.
