Satellite Broadband failed because...

1. It was horribly expensive.
2. It was a measured service.
3. It is slow.
4. Latency is a MAJOR issue, especially for home-users. You cannot play MM Online Games on Satellite due to the major latency times.
5. Usage games. Anyone remember the "Fair Use Policy" ?

And finally, poor support/service. I had Satellite Internet Service from Hughes several years back. I never worked with a more obnoxious, uppity, condenscending support department in my life.
