I was focussing on the retail side (third part - M2 in particular) where the ISP's have underspent on their infrastructure as they couldn't handle the bandwidth necessary for customer demand. This is effectively dead money as your can't recover it from the customer. In fact, competition is putting pressure on prices every day. It's one thing to have the capacity, which they have averaged, as a wholesaler but then at night time when the demand peaks. Kaboom. And thats why people are getting less than 2mbps download speed. ISP's have to expand their infrastructure to cater for peak loads and that comes at a cost.
Just a note Telcowiz. I don't mind you correcting me if you think I am writing stuff that you believe is wrong but try not to make it personal (by the sounds of it, is based on non recent experience.)
Let's keep this discussion open and informative. I'm happy to continue to learn so lets keep it civil please.
Cheers
