Beaverton, OR | Stubborn Customers Even when AT&T do raise prices, some people just won't switch over.
For example, just look at AOL dial-up users. AOL charges some of the highest prices in the industry for dial-up, yet people continue to use it.
I view it as sort of like the "cigarette tax". Smokers grumble, but pay it anyways.
Yet, dial-up certainly is not addictive!  |

Or they might live in an area where AT&T is too cheap to have DSL available. |
