ACTUAL fiber optics is. DSL goes through a phone line. A fiber optic connection, you must bury a tube from your ISP location, all the way to your house.

Like for me to get it, I'd need to lay a fiber optic line from downtown Minneapolis, all the way to my house, digging up and replacing the roads and ground. It's not made for residential use, but if you had billions of dollars, you could afford it. T3 is only $35K a month, I could only imagine what a fiber optic connection would cost.
