Comcast, like Time Warner, probably has it to a node then copper to your house. Fiber is the future and Verizon knows it. Comcast know they are a big threat. Upload bandwidth sucks with cable. FIOS, if you get their faster plus line, you get a 20Mb upload! Anyways, hopefully, it will bring prices down. I just wish I had FTTH service around my area. Verizon runs fiber to your house.

I've been seeing Time Warner running a load of anti-FiOS commercials in my area lately on TV. I can see if I can get some of those commercials up online if you'd like to see them. By the way Phil, how could you forget about the Michael Bay commercial? Sure, it's not relevant to the topic but it's awesome :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiHsxQJ9ZOo&fmt=18 Love these ads.

I love ad wars, especially when it is all about image and less about facts. Hilarious. I love ad wars, especially when it is all about image and less about facts.
