People in rural parts of America where ISPs don't want to expand into.

They seem to be expanding even across rural America. These days it's fairly common for small and medium size towns to have access to 500mbps-1gbps for $50-$90 per month, and essentially all small cities and above.

Reddit is overflowing with threads where people are getting AT&T to give them 1gbps for $30-$35 per month. Comcast has repeatedly offered me 1gbps for ~$50/m for five years locked-in. I have no practical use for it.

The US has more broadband than it knows what to do with at this point. Somebody needs to figure out a mass public use for home 1gbps+.

		Fastest option I can get where I am is 260 Mbps for $250 from a local wireless ISP... This makes starlink tempting but for that I'd have to run cabling 50 plus. M to get the this where it has a clear view of the sky... (Edit) A nearby small town is installing municipal fiber right now, which is great, but that's half an hour away.

		Do you think those prices would be available if SpaceX wasn't providing strong competition?
