I think part of the problem is that there aren't enough people who want a really fast internet connection. Verizon's FiOS subscription rate is about 10% even though it's significantly faster in both directions than almost all alternatives. If the subscription rate were high enough Verizon would definitely lay more fiber, but right now there doesn't seem to be enough demand.
