You could see this happening way below Telco broadband fees. If you're paying $60/month that's $720/year. And if you add your telephone line, and certain other data services that could potentially be reduced, the monthly cost is MUCH higher.

$720/year, capitalized at the typical investment alternative of 6% that is the equivalent of a capital investment of $12,000. In other words, a homeowner should be *GLAD* to invest $2000 in a device and antennas, and pay $20/month to an ISP (which has been a fairly steady figure for the ISP side of a broadband connection), if it really provided reliable, megabit Internet access.
