Jay, you may be right about
The broadband market in South Korea appears to be following some US trends:I'm wondering if this is just churn in the market? I do have to admit, tho, that I was suspicious about the Wired article taking so much of it's information from "Jin-wook Son, managing director of Korea Telecom UK."

"Korean Housewives Want Speedy Net" (Wired, 1/1/03)

But the Wired piece is talking about Korea Telecom. The ones filing for bankruptcy are Korea Thrunet Co., Ltd. and "Onse."
....what does it all mean?-)
I wonder if Wired did a follow-up on this... Or is failure in a government subsidized broadband venture not as geek sexy?:)
I'd be interested to see a Wired follow up on broadband in SK! It looks to me like broadband to the home here is the name-of-the-tune. How it gets to the home, and the price, and penetration and when this happens, uh, welcome to telecommunications industry and regulation in the U.S.!

Subject: [internetworkers] Broadband question
Is there an INW member (phone/cable company employee...) I could speak with about"Most pay about $33 monthly for an 8 megabit-per-second connection."This is from a Wired article about broadband in South Korea: http://www.wired.com/news/infostructure/0,1377,5>6525,00.html
Is all broadband to the home in the U.S. about 1M? Why?
