I remember reading somewhere (I think this webside) that USA considers some speeds as broadband that are considered narrowband in other countries.

Still, the U.S. needs to do better in its broadband penetration rate – for our own sake. My thoughts are that we need more competition to bring down what often are ridiculous monthly broadband rates, not affordable to those with tight budgets.

Do you think that BPL might one day spur the competition needed to bring down these costs?
