It’s all about competition — these services have 60-90% margins depending on the capital expenses needed in a region. The costs of all of the service delivery components drop over time — automation eliminated many of the expensive positions and the costs of switching and other gear has been in free fall for years. My brother in law lives about 1000 yards from my house, in a suburban town. I’m in the city. My spectrum internet is $70 for 75 down, he pays $32 for 150. Spectrum is not losing money. The difference? The town has FIOS. Verizon isn’t moving into the city because the margins on future 5G connectivity is much higher than FIOS. |
