Verizon's FiOS TV's first anniversary

Verizon is celebrating the big ONE after their first year of FiOS TV service. The service launched last year on September 22nd and now provides more the 80 communities across seven states. This first year has allowed them to become the number one terrestrial provider of high-def stations at 16 with some areas reaching providing more then 25. Plus, they have naturally become number one in percentage of customers with digital service along with number one in total subscribers with DVRs. The whole system operates over fiber instead of the standard copper found in normal cable systems but the system has to be installed in your area before a person can subscribe and while Verizon is working on upgrading more and more communities, it takes time. Their first year went great so we don't see why the second wouldn't go just as good and reach even more potential subscribers.
