No Brainer Here

Of course BB rentals don't scare cable. With ISPs throttling/blocking/capping left & right, why would they be scared?

Personally, I wouldn't get voip if you gave it to me for free. I for one enjoy having a phone service if the power goes out or my internet is down. Call me crazy but voip really isn't that good. At least where I live, a local landline without long distance is much cheaper with voip. Maybe if long distance were added, the cost would be a bit higher. Still, in my mind, I'd rather have the landline. To answer the question, well why don't you use your cell if the phone is down, it's simple. I got a cell but the home phone is still best. If I recall properly, voip being a cable phone, eliminates you from using the data services of a land line (Fax, dialup, etc). I might be wrong on that, and please correct me. Even if I am, the fact voip sucks with 911 is enough of a deterrent, too.
