The problem will always be the middle of nowhere though. European countries in particular brag about their great networks, but their countries are tiny compared to ours. Our cities are getting much much better (especially with Google pushing cheap Internet just to get our networks improved), but getting cheap reliable Internet to the middle of nowhere isn't very cost effective for anyone except wireless services.


I can't get fast, cheap internet in Los Angeles. I'm at $36 for 3Mbps down, 1Mbps up. Los Angeles isn't the middle of nowhere :-p

We live in a city that barely grew enough to be designated a "city" about 15 years ago.

We were paying $30 for 30Mps, unlimited, though the price has doubled. Still, I think once your population density grows, bandwith distribution gets bottlenecked... Dem greedy companies. But Google will come one day...
