Over long distance I get better reliability out of a decent internet provision than in many fixed point to point links, and certainly when comparing at a price point. The downside of the internet is you can't guarantee path separation - even if today you're routing via two different paths, tomorrow the routes might change and you end up with everything going via the same data centre or even same cable.
