Agreed, my company is doing it they should too

Because fiber cost next to nothing for hundreds of feet. Coax cost $80,000 per mile. 500 feet with all the electrical components would cost approximately $7500. Then it’s about $150 to the install (labor for tech roll) $200 for the modem and wire and another 150 to bury the new service drop. So the cable company would have to spend 8 grand to get $60 a month. And who’s to say the new customer wouldn’t cancel after 3 months?
