As far as I can tell prices in Germany are better than in the US, and broadband while not stellar is fine. My home internet is 500/100 speed and costs 35€ (with unlimited data and calls to landline and mobile numbers, for whatever thats worth). My mobile plan is 8€/month for 10GB of data (5G, of course not great availability outside cities, but LTE is not that bad) and unlimited calls and SMS.
