Don't worry Vermont, you are going to get it in the end.

This is why Verizon wants out. If they have to run fiber to every maple shack I won't get it in NJ.

quote:
The Vermont Public Service Board (VPSB), for example, filed comments with the FCC emphasizing that it must retain the power to require video providers to roll out services in low density areas, where profitable, and not just allow them to “cherry pick” the most profitable regions.

ROI's are very important to a company, it's what stock holders demand. I don't have a problem with companies having some sort of ROI, it's just when they want the ROI to be less than five or ten years for large, long-term, and permanent projects.

It's a shame that corporations only look at the next quarter or two of their stock worth that has become a major issue with the World Economy. Look at what's happened with Oil.

Rural markets are like the "long tail" of video content. All that's needed are new business models to exploit that. I only wish I could think of some.
