Multi-dwelling units are a whole other ball of wax; a magnitude beyond
political stupidity. Landlords like to extort service providers, make
them pay for access, er a give kickbacks, etc. It ain't pretty, and
all it does is cost the consumers more and more.
And all this brings us to a point I made earlier: that technological
shifts, particularly with the internet, are limited severely in the US
compared to other countries where access to the internet are superior to
the services customers are made to pay in the US. Most people in Japan,
for example, would think it insane that people are still paying for
dial-up, in 2010, in the US. What are we thinking? In 2006 a friend from
the UK told me that he came to California and was shocked with the
limited options available for his 3G wireless phone. Stifling progress
to satisfy greed is indeed ghastly.
