www.verizonfiber.com/Default.aspxconsumers in the Rochester area would flock to a service that offers the better services, lower fees, and unlimited fast bandwidth that Verizon FIOS offers.
Maybe they would and maybe they wouldn't. But if the web site owner thinks there is such a massive number of people ready to jump on the fiber bandwagon, why doesn't he put that effort in to starting up his own fiber competitor in the area. Even in this rough economy there is still a lot of venture capital out there for the taking. Maybe he should get some and start his own competitive fiber service.
Whether they flock to FiOS or not is actually beside the point. Since it appears that these caps only exist in areas where FiOS isn't, wouldn't it stand to reason that having FiOS in the city would create an incentive for TWC to eliminate or reduce those caps? Why, they may even be incentivized to expedite the roll-out of DOCSIS 3.0. Consumers would be served even if they didn't move over to FiOS.
