Price is king, evidenced by telcos losing POTS subs to cable while telcos kicked cable's ass in new HSI adds (because of the cheap DSL pricing). this is also why before cable phone, POTS was loosing to cell phones. the cell carriers offered more features and cheaper long distance then land lines did for a long time.

Thing is if they lose all those POTS subscribers, DSL won't be available to them unless they switch back in most cases  . I mean they are losing more POTS subscribers than they are gaining customers in either DSL or Teleco TV. Here on BBR, they have said that the top four POTS companies are all together losing 2.6 Million subscribers per quarter, with half switching to the cable company. |
