Municipal broadband sounds like a good idea, until you see it happen in reality. What happens is cities are often forced to take the buildout to auction, when Comcast comes in with an absurdly low bid and says "oh yeah we'll 'build' it ROFLMAO".
Don't get me wrong, the community coming together to compete is a good idea. But we need to start examining the failures and avoid them. An independent organization would be a FAR better approach in my opinion.
