Centereach, NY 1 recommendation nothing00 Member Re: "Finite Spectrum" Ah yes: Wireless is different it is dependent on finite spectrum,



And wired has the same limits. "Wired has all of these limitations. Just how many bits do you think we can fit into those tiny wires we ran to your house?" When it boils down to it it's all about infrastructure and technology investment.

Washington, DC 1 recommendation IPPlanMan Member She's right... Wireless is different. They can make more money on it.

Nothing new here. Price fixing by gov't regulation is only viable for short periods of time and never works in the long term.

said by Soup : Scarce resources command higher prices following laws of supply and demand. That's exactly right and explains why America's wired broadband is so expensive. High speed residential service is scarce here. But it has nothing to do with competition. This is what happens when governments DON'T get involved.

Monroe, MI 1 recommendation desarollo Member It Is the Differnet Wireless is different because it is finite when our customers are wanting to use it, but amazingly in ample supply when Amazon pays a data transmission fee or the NFL uses it to stream games.

The fact their caps are so low and they regularly manipulate traffic needs to be closely looked at
