| Telco's pocketed USF fees rather than upgrading. While the telephone companies were pocketing the USF Fees the Cable Television Industry was upgrading their networks at their own expense, with RF over Fiber. Why? At the time there was a loud sucking sound as customers were abandoning cable for direct broadcast satellite service. Consumers turned their backs on crappy 55 Channel Cable Systems when they could get 150 channels through the air. The cable industry had to do something, so they developed digital cable. The telephone companies need to get moving or they will find themselves in the same position as the canal companies were in, when railroads were developed in the 1830's. Sunk! |
