Re: $1.25 per Mbps for fiber, $5.65 per Mbps for cable? said by funchords:For a given data rate, the cost of fiber and cable connections has also dropped by 20 percent and 30 percent, respectively. Currently, the cost is about $1.25 per megabit per second for fiber and $5.65 for cable.Shouldn't the cost for cable, inferior to fiber for data, be lower? Can anyone explain this one? In theory, because you have less bandwidth available to cable users, but roughly the same demand, the price is greater due to scarcity.
