I don't know how many people of you have lived outside a city but your internet options are fairly horrible. You have 56k which would take somewhere around a few years to download 30 gigs (no real numbers used, I don't feel like calculating it). Your other option is satellite which is also really really bad. You can get reasonable transfer rates but you have a ridiculous cap at somewhere around 10 Gigs a months. There is going to have to be a lot that has to change in order to get them up to speed. There can't be a standard of direct download when its not possible for 40% of the population |
Mobile broadband may be a very good way for people in remote places to get broadband. LTE and LTE-Advanced will give very fast speeds and they're not too far away.
