- pi-err 13y agoThe exchange rate chosen in the comp kills the euro and CHF zones while benefiting £. I have been living in the UK, France and Germany - no chance that the UK pays less per MB than the 2 others who have among the best providers and networks in the world. On the core of the issue: xDSL is favorable to homogeneously, densely populated areas. Fiber has a CAPEX that home usage can't monetize. On a similar infrastructure depleted continent, Africa, one telco generation (wired voice/internet) was skipped and they have now a top 3G network. Way to go?
