Our DSL data rates are much less than yours while our prices for that service are much more. Example someone here in the US can pay $50/mo. (or more) for 1500Kps download with 128Kps upload. Here in the US we pay much more for a much inferior product. I was trying to point out that what passes for DSL broadband here would be considered substandard in other countries - something the statistics do not take into account. It is like comparing apples to oranges - they are both fruits but definitely not the same thing.

Unfortunately we have almost no fiber deployment in the US (or at least useful fiber deployment - there's is a lot of fiber in the ground that is not connected). Here's my look at fiber deployment in the US.

Thanks for the reply. Hope I explained myself better in this post - I don't think we disagree on cost in the US versus Japan. I think I'll go out to my backyard, dig some holes, bury some cables, and see how rich I get.:D

I liked the story. Some times figures can put things in perspective - like how South Korea is the overall leader while being a much smaller country than the US and China. What the figures don't show is the difference in broadband data rates in different countries - it just lumps everything together. Here in the US I believe we have much lower DSL data rates compared to South Korea, Japan, and places in Europe. I'd like to see an article detailing the differences and the reasons behind this.

Thats funny how in the world can you say its cheaper in the usa? Where we are paying from 2200 yen or $17.00 to 4200 or $36.00 for 12MBPS speed?!??!?!?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,5316974 Sat, 14 Dec 2002 06:41:21 EDT Re: what else is new http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,5316083 weebies$ : I liked the story.
