I suspect that it's less costly to deliver services over fiber once it
is installed too, and that maintenance costs for things like flooding or
rain induced failures will be lessened too. It has a high cost to
originally start up and then almost no cost for a long period of time.
I personally would sign up FIOS if it were available where I live
despite the short lived UPS when there is a power failure.
Let's also not forget that FIOS allows lots more bandwidth for all kinds
of usages, why we in the US might soon have broadband that's competitive
in speed with what many get in South Korea.
