Why Internet is so cheap in America as compared to other countries?

Indeed, economies of scale are probably in crowded asian cities, okay, americans have so me too, but, while fast internet is available there, it is not so cheap.
You said 500MBPS ?!?!?! ARGH !!!!
That's nothing, i have 1gbps for same money, but speeds over 500 mbps are only happening close by. I rarely go over 100 on other continents.
1mbps at $22/m in India, 20GB bw.
Its costly. Which ISP?
Hi,
In Romania you can get home internet 1Gigabit Romania Local, and 100Mb/s external connection for just $19 per month
I pay $12 For 8 Mbps/m in sri lanka, 35 GB Bw
$50/mo for 15/2 via local cable ISP in USA, capped to 250GB during peak hours after which you're billed $1/GB extra
$33 for 1 Mbps / month in Mauritius
Fucking expensive
Indian ISP - Local.
I pay about $100 (6000INR) for 100mbps connection. Sadly it is capped to around 200gb
Oh! I'm using Tata Indicom broadband 8mbps @ 160GB Bandwidth @ 1600 INR.
£20 / month for 30MB down and 2MB up
This is my buddy's house, 1gbit up/down for $113.00 / month ... wish I could get it for my house, even though I live just 30 miles away
i flip the bill for his ISP and I get to run my half rack in his basement.
I'm paying over $30 a month in the Alaska,US for a 8/3 mbps, and using directv services.
America = Continent
North America = Cheap internet (some exceptions)
South America = Cheap to really expensive internet (I'm paying 37USD/m for 150/10, without cap in Chile)
