Re: fiber is costly to install and digging is not easy

said by battleop:

"Especially is what people claim is true and the cost of fiber is falling at an exponential rate"

There are a lot of us out there that would love to find where the cost of deploying fiber is falling a an "exponential rate" because we would love to jump on this bandwagon.

It still costs $2-5 per foot to deploy and I've not seen a drastic drop in pricing.

as a fixed cost it hasn't dropped huge amounts, someone mentioned Fios started at 4000/home passed and we're now down to under $1000 in the last decade. That being said, on a price per mbit, it's dropped a lot.... not that that means all that much, but it is another metric to examine
