    I have the equivalent to my home (it's from AT&T, not Verizon). My TV, phone and Internet all come in through fiber to the premise. It's pretty nice.

    I heard FIO DL speed is around 50MB/sec and it never laggs, while cables share lines and if too many folks on at the same time you suffer from speeds..

    I had cable a while back and damn they're good.. that was 7 years ago, not sure about now.

    Back then my max DL was 11MB/sec not bad when you were in 2003 [:
