   DP>WD> And is the market liberalised or is it a state-owned monopoly there?   
       
   DP> haha. i was waiting for that question. yes it's -still- liberalised, but   
   DP> good catch. :)   
       
   Ah yes, Matav. I forgot where you reside. Any competitors?   
       
   DP> a couple of years ago these idiots tried to make an internet-tax (150   
   DP> HUF/GB on data, approx 0.4 EUR/GB), but on the same evening millions went   
   DP> on to the streets protesting against it, so on the next day they back   
   DP> off.   
       
   When politicians need money, they become very resourceful.   
       
   So, millions took to the streets against an internet-tax but they still vote   
   for such an idiot like Orban?   
       
   Maybe the numbers are 'slightly' exagerated?   
       
   Other than that I'm not impressed by fiber-optic and the need for it.   
       
   I still enjoy my 2 copper wires connection. It serves 2 TVs, a landline, 5 or   
   6 mobiles, tablets and this Fido server. No delays, no malfunctions ... how   
   much bandwith and speed does the residential customer require?
