Asked a friend in the US, small town Indiana, what his Internet was. $50 for 100Mbps. I think that included all his phone needs as well, and a large amount of data, but not uncapped. Don't quote me because I can't find the info now, but I know it was half of what we pay.

People know these things. They don't want to be paying for something they don't think they'll get. Most people don't need the high speed anyway. If it was value for money, maybe.
