Broadband is going for $8-$16 for 8Mbps and higher in Hong Kong, Korea and Japan....
This is the biggest BBRism ever. Someone always brings this up. I'm not saying it isn't true, and it isn't annoying, but it's funny how mad this makes so many people.
isn't it interesting every time that horse is drug out, no mention is ever made of those countries' governments subsidizing those services either.
I find it interesting the anti-telco and anti-cable slant this site has at times - two industries for without whom this site would not exist and everyone would be stuck on AOL or Prodigy dial-up. It's as if people here think the telco's and cable companies came up with broadband just to make our lives miserable.
