Is Fios better than cable?

You decide. Fios delivers internet and TV service over 100% fiber-optic lines that transmit data faster than the less reliable copper lines used by some of the best cable providers. That means you get a stunning picture quality and hi-res audio. And because those fiber lines are made from glass and plastic, they’re less vulnerable to bad weather and power outages. So you can count on your entertainment to be there whenever you want it.
