Cost varies depending on the area. Some areas which are harder to upgrade than others naturally bandwidth would be more expensive.
If there's pre-existing fibre there and all that's needed to resegment is a new card in a uBR then wouldn't be too bad. If to facilitate the upgrade several thousand feet of new fibre would need to be laid obviously it increases the cost per GB a fair bit.
If usage is relatively light in an area so more customers are happily co-existing on kit that makes bandwidth cheaper, if it's an area full of monster users more upgrades and in turn higher cost per GB.
Obviously we can't charge each area differently, that'd be an absolute PITA.
