You're right of course, but they won't get *my* money unless they can
provide the service i want, which includes a sizeable chunk of download
and upload bandwidth. Luckily, many DSL providers are more than
happy to undercut and out service the cable companies today.
It's easy to be jealous of the Japanese though who are so far ahead of
us, having much greater penetration of fiber to the home with 100Mbit
download _and_ upload speeds for little more than we pay for a rate
limited cable connection here.
Cheers,
