According to this Japan Times report, some users in the country can receive 100Mbps fiber for around 4500 Yen ($41). Users are making the shift to fiber as 45Mbps DSL packages there offer restrictive upload speeds as low as 1Mbps, restricting high quality video communications. "When we first started offering the B Flet's fiber-optic services, the version with up to 10 Mbps was priced at 5,000 yen per month, but now the one with up to 100 Mbps is offered for 4,500 yen," says Toshiyasu Himori, senior manager of broadband business at NTT East Corp.
