Google Fiber Has No Problem With Customer Demand - 60% of Qualified Users Interested in Signing Up

Google Fiber Has No Problem With Customer Demand 60% of Qualified Users Interested in Signing Up While a few paid (by Microsoft and AT&T) pundits like Scott Cleland have insisted demand won't be there for Google Fiber, a new survey unsurprisingly finds that Kansas City locals are thrilled about the possibility of symmetrical 1 Gbps for $70. According to a new survey by Ideas & Solutions! Inc., 60% of those who qualify are very interested in obtaining Google Fiber. The company's studies showed that Google Fiber surpassed broadband incumbents on 11 attributes -- even Google's weakest: consumer privacy protection.The company saw massive national interested by having cities nationwide vie for Google's attention in order to get deployment. Even after Kansas City was selected, national attention on the network build has been unprecedented for the telecom sector. "Google Fiber has conducted a remarkable marketing campaign," said Glen Friedman, president of Ideas & Solutions! Inc. "Historically, pay TV 'overbuilders' penetrate about one-third of their marketplace over time. This level of interest in the beginning is unprecedented. For Google Fiber, the challenge moving forward is to do an equally good job on the fulfillment." That may be easier said than done. As we've seen with handset and tablet shipping and support, Google still has plenty to learn when it comes to customer service. Still, the enthusiasm we've seen for Google fiber speaks not only to the quality of Google's marketing, but to the dissatisfaction many consumers have with existing broadband services.

Razoul join:2012-10-09 Crestline, CAReviews: ?Charter If people like elray and ITALIAN926 are to be believed then we have no need for fiber. Capped cable and DSL are the best things in the world and anyone who questions why mono and duopolies are allowed on something such as last mile internet just hate the freedom we Americans have and they prove that our unregulated internet infrastructure has no problems with greedy corporations or anything like that and the customers don't need anything more than 3mbit DSL anyways. Looks like there's actually an interest in a product that provides something more than the pathetic offerings Comcast, AT&T and others provide for high cost with low offering on all fronts. Who knew? Reviews: ?Time Warner Cable ?RoadRunner Cable Re: If people like You're absolutely right. I don't need anything higher than 15mbps. Hell, you can get 3 streams of netflix on that and have a few kbps to spare! It's fantastic! Oh, and don't forget about the ability to backup my storage to the cloud with my massive 1mbps upload rate. I'd love to have fiber - I'd colocate my stuff in a heartbeat.. Re: If people like So do you think the network should be built first or the applications? You, being against fast networks for some unknown reason, would say the applications, right? Which I personally think is ass backwards as would probably 95+% of anyone involved in technology. In technology you dont wait until the limits are reached to figure out how to create new limits. You constantly push the limits and make things as fast and as efficient as you can at all times and let the rest fall into place. It is the way the PC and technology has been since the very day it was created and it has brought much innovation. Using the ignorance of your method we would progress much slower because no one would want to create apps that a vast majority of the world cant use and the network owners certainly wouldnt invest in improving their networks unless we (the consumers) are pushing them to do so by taking their networks to the limits. I bet you dont still use a 56k modem so unless you are willing to do that, stop with your BS that we dont need higher speeds. $64.90 for 50Mbps.... .... so can anyone tell me why for the love of God i wouldn't get 1Gbps for $5 more? I mean seriously?? I don't need 1Gbps download but better than 8Mbps upload would be nice, say 20-30Mbps (got cloud backup). Pushing 1-10GB of data per day up to the cloud on 8Mbps isn't so bad per say, takes a few hours but man it would be sweet if i could do it in 1hr or less Google Fiber Nationwide/Continent Wide? I don't care if Google Fiber goes nationwide. I just want it to come to my city. I'd sign up in an eye blink. Show me anyone under 60 or 70 who doesn't want faster speeds and no bandwidth caps... I'm 65 and I use several hundred GB per month, mostly video (legal) and streaming audio. Around our house over-the-air & cable television are pretty much history. I have 10 mbps --unlimited-- cable internet (Canada - $47.95) and the peace of mind knowing that I'm not going to get whacked with some astronomical bandwidth overage bill because we watch a few too many programs or movies is wonderful. Now all I need is the speed of Google Fiber and for uncompressed hi-def 3D streaming video, 3D video conferencing, etc., etc. As time goes on and I grow older, speeds like Google Fiber's and unrestricted bandwidth will become more important. Even more-so than now, the internet will be my window on the world and my connection to friends and relatives as I become less mobile and possibly infirm with increasing age. Thank you Google for starting the snowball rolling down the hill. Please keep it up. I have capped my Internet payments I turned off my TV Cable, and kept only the internet at $70. For that price my ISP provides 18m Down and 2.5m up service. My cousins in UK, pay $36 for my service speeds, and in Japan they pay $60 for 1 Gig service. The demand is there in large numbers, but why would ISPs provide service when bundling price fixing has us locked into paying providers big money for what they provide mentality, so they can report large earnings. All cities should have a separate cable/fiber company, and any provider should be able to provide service, or build their own fiber delivery. The corporate lobbyist that keep the elected officials flush with money, to manipulate the US consumer and keep that consumer under their heel, is the bane of a once free country. Cable and DSL bundling is like the Oil Cartel and they price fix like there is no tomorrow. The justice department needs to destroy this cartel, I am surprised that Google is being allowed into a city that has such tight control over what their consumers are getting.

Not even close.
