Fios availability is not expanding...and why not?

I am fortunate to have Fios. Yes-I know..fortunate is perhaps an oxymoron based on customer service experience. The technology works for me. More on that later. This article is pretty fresh.

5 reasons Verizon needs to restart its FiOS rollout - FierceTelecom

The reason that Verizon chose to stop the expansion of FiOS is quite simple. Cost recovery! They also sold off a significant percentage of their footprint, including FiOS areas, to Frontier. I'm wondering if they are wishing they had gone with the FTTN IPTV solution that AT&T and CenturyLink are using. AT&T U-verse is the fastest expanding pay-tv/high speed internet service in America.
