I agree on the Monopoly part. I live near Houston, less than 30 minutes away, and living in that big of city you'd think I'd be able to get at least SOME kind of broadband right? Nope. All I can get is Dialup/ISDN, technology more than 20 years old. Where as my nextdoor neighboors can get ONE form and ONLY one form of broadband, Road Runner.
I'm not quite sure why Broadband ISPs continue to compete a little bit in areas where they're the only company that offers Broadband, except for their own reputation maybe, when they could be expanding their area instead. |
