FiOS TV expansions: June, 13, 2009

FiOS TV expansions continued as usual this week, with two new areas in New York signing up for the service as Verizon made note of its infrastructure investments in the area, and the company switched on access in Marblehead, Mass. Otherwise, there was a note about the VOD offerings (no mention of 1080p,) but not much else this week.

The world does not revolve around new york and surrounding areas. Why are they so limited to that area. Hey us in the south could use some of those options as well.

Yeah, it does actually. Verizon is a northeastern company. It's main base of operation has been from Virginia to New England since BellAtlantic and NYNEX were created from the original AT&T. There are small pockets outside the northeast still remaining from the GTE merger, but they just sold a huge chuck of that off.

If your “south” is south of Virginia, your option would be AT&T U-Verse.
