We recently saw Virgin Media launch their super fast fibre optic broad band, with the current growth of the internet it is something the UK must do to be ahead in a technological sense.As the internet expands its becomes more and more about media and large files being displayed to you. so to ultimatley view a website at its best you need to have good connection speeds.
If we think a decade back and think of dial up connections, in this current day and age they just would not be enough and it would take so long to download files, watch videos on the likes of YouTube and navigate through sites. But at the moment broadband does let us do all of this at quite reasonable speeds.
BT on the other hand though are now thinking about the future and have announced that they will be proceeding to install next generation fibre optic cables throughout the UK. Ofcom has announced that it will not regulate BT’s pricing for next-generation broadband to enable the telecoms giant to make the necessary investment in fibre-optic cabling.
I presume that when this does get rolled out it will begin to be quite pricey for a few years; we all remember how much dial up used to be when it was first released and then how much broadband was. But I ultimatley do feel that this could be seen as a very good move by BT.Although the fibre cables will cost a lot of money to I am certain that the sale of Super fast broadband will explode and they will make it back.
