U.S. aid to spread broadband access criticized | The Columbus Dispatch - 0 views

      Companies always complain about competition when it's too late and they've already missed the band wagon. These other companies have had chances even if it was small and incremental to make improvements to their broadband offerings and they chose not too. They also had an opportunity to bid for this stimulus money and unfortunately they did not receive it. If they had they would not be complaning right now.

      this is similar to Googles plan to introduce gigabit service to smaller cities on a limited scale to see if the results are profitable. I will be interesting to see if these underdeveloped areas really do take advantage of this service or if it will be lost on them.
  • These local phone and cable companies fear that they will have to compete with governmentsubsidized broadband systems, paid for largely with stimulus dollars. If the taxpayer-funded networks siphon off customers by offering lower prices, private companies might be less likely to upgrade their lines, endangering jobs and undermining the stimulus plan's goals, they warn.

  • Many existing systems, they note, lack the capacity to meet mush rooming demand for bandwidth. The new, stimulus-funded networks will provide far more-robust connections - many of them offering speeds of up to 100 megabits or even 10 gigabits per second to schools, libraries and other "anchor institutions." That's 20 to 2,000 times faster than the DSL and cable wires linking most U.S. homes.
