Even in such populous areas as San Jose, there is a limited selection to a majority of the customers, especially if 
they want more than 1.5Mbps.

I lived in San Jose for several years, and had several choices for broadband - the one I chose was much faster than 
1mb/sec, had an AUP which specifically allowed me to run a server, and didn't try to cap my bandwidth, or disable the 
use of p2p apps, or whatever.

I moved away from San Jose in at the tail-end of 2007.  It seems likely that at least the same level of choice 
prevails there today . . .


So, I lived in San Jose, too, for many years, and I had fewer choices
there than I do here now in the Pacific Northwest.

In any event, depending on where you are in the U.S., many consumers
have a choice between bad and worse. :-)
