I don't believe it's an issue of the media (fiber or copper). With ADSL, it's only broadband 1 way and so would be less appealing to corps. XDSL is a competitor to wireless fiber and it can come in synchronous flavors. However, I think one of the other major advantages of wireless fiber is that local, long distance and internet access can be provided over 1 link by 1 company. XDSL would most likely come from RBOC or be resold by IXC so Winstar advantage would remain from a 1 stop or price perspective depending on the competitor.
