We didn’t get broadband at my parents place until '04 (buitengebied or rural area) and the speeds they got then wouldn’t even qualify as broadband today (something like 1 or 2 Mbit). But even in a worst case scenario (for us regular users, not for UHS) that business proposition seems to be about a decade out of date. Is dial-up even still an option?
I’m all for not having stuff online, don’t get me wrong — I have a 64 GB MicroSD card in my phone precisely so I don’t have to — but plain textual content works pretty darn well in a browser.
PS My parents could get like a Gigabit via fiber now, but they’re sticking with the 8 Mbit because why pay insane amounts of money? They’d need to get some ridiculous triple-play package which would actually be hugely inferior to their current satellite TV. But that aside.
Isn’t it cheaper to go for the Gigabit fiber than sticking with an old expensive contract?
It’ll never ever be cheaper. Perhaps a few years down the line it’ll be a better deal, but for the nearby future it would be a lot more for an inferior product. To be connected that provider demanded triple play and a two year contract to offset the investment to put in the cable.
Cable TV (or fiber TV if it’s only cable when it’s coax? ) is inherently inferior to satellite due to an absolutely abysmal offering of channels coupled with worse video quality, not to mention the forced horrors of terrible set-top boxes instead of free choice like with satellite (or maybe on fiber they might actually have enough bandwidth to have satellite-like quality? but I’m guessing they prep it centrally somewhere without special higher quality fiber streams even if technically possible). Plus if there’s something wrong, everything would be down all at once if it’s all from the same source.
I rather doubt I’d do it, and unlike my parents I’d get a heck of a lot of better use out of the faster speeds. (The upload is rather annoyingly slow though.)
