Sounds like they are manufacturing more bandwidth and the zero sum game is getting bigger.
I believe it when it gets to my street. So far, the reality is Really Slow DSL, with service and installation times measured in weeks at costs that aren't competitive. So yes, I missed all of that.
And, at that, only after extracting regulatory concessions at both the state and federal levels basically giving them their monopoly back to give them "incentive" to half-*ssed roll out that DSL that is, itself, a mere fraction of what is technically possible.
