MR> Mnet, netCologne and others offer FTTH for several years now.
The ones you mention are local providers. I know of no providers with at least regional coverage that offer such an option. And another matter: do either or both of the providers you mention install fiber lines _inside_ houses? The "last mile"? That is the sore point in many cases.

So "Profit, Profit ueber alles" is the watchword. Not really surprising.
