The curious case of Romanian broadband

I have gigabit up and down in my house in Michigan for $49/month. Fiber, a new ISP. We got lucky in my town because the city owns the phone poles and is very open to leasing space.

nice! "a2" - Ann Arbor, by any chance? I used to live in Ypsi, but those were the days of dual-channel ISDN being 'hot stuff'. :)

Actually, we ARE in Ypsilanti. Ann Arbor has worse options then us--they don't own their poles and they're a bigger city. We're small enough and have the poles to make us a better target for small time rollouts. I'm loving the fiber life style though.
