America has tonnes and tonnes of fibre optic cable that they laid in the 90s and never used when the .com bubble burst and internet got more efficient, so most of the main "trunk" lines of the system will be fibre. the hang up is, and it's the same here, the connection to peoples houses from the nearest exchange is usually copper. they call it the "last 100 yards" problem.

heh The company we rent from will have a fibre optic business connection already, I really doubt they'll be running a bunch of server racks on anything else.

I doubt this is even a bandwidth problem though, with minecraft. Fairly sure before we established it was disk I/O ?
