Hi, Mike - I recall you were interested in the reasons behind the success of DSL in Korea.

There's a blurb in the latest ITU newsletter that might augment your database...

itu.int

"The pattern of household residents in the Republic of Korea can explain, in part, the success of ADSL. More than 90 per cent of households live within 4 km of a local exchange. Most offices and half of the households, about 7.5 out of 15 million, are in apartment complexes. With short distances, not only is one of the main disadvantages of ADSL technology avoided, but also economies of scale are achieved in providing ADSL service using fibre cable."

The benefits of competition, as noted in your upstream post, are also pointed out.

Regards,

Jim

Edit - BTW, thanks for your post on ftth's VOD material. Still wading through it!
