Re: Caps = Crap

Why install a $2,000 per customer network when you already have a network that you can squeeze extra revenue out of? $10,000,000 a month would roll out fiber in one town a month. Plus you have $800 CPE. Plus you have bandwidth that costs $50-100 per Mbps. Think about that a second.

There are still ways to do it. Fiber is not that expensive, I have done it myself and soon my home will be fiber, you can by in bulk and it only costs 1.5 times more than dirt cheap ethernet cat 5 cable, the only thing that costs is the buffing and terminations.

Its not a cure all, but money is being incorrectly flowed inside of alot of companies. When they start the interest is the customer, then when they get a certain size interst becomes in pushing out competition.

Comcast doesnt want to let Starpower into Maryland, and they are doing everything that they can to keep them out. Starpower is about half the price, and they offer more services to more areas. Thats enough proof of incorrect cash flow to me.
