No, i was refering to their popularity, not offering. Every at&t ad you see Talks about bundling home phone, internet and tv or wireless for 75 or 99/mo. Jo Consumer calls in to switch from cable, and says i want that 75 or 99 bundle deal, and i bet most reps dont say but thats for our cheepest dsl speed, for 5 or 10 bucks more a month you can double or tripple ur speed.
Same with Time Warner's $99 triple play or the 3 for $29 each promos they have going.

You've seen uptake on the Basic DSL packages for one main reason. Thats the level of service AT&T pushes when they talk about bundling for 75 or 99.
No, the "light" tiers are offered as stand alone product by most providers. The only requirement most providers have with the light tiers is that you sign a 12 month (or greater) term to get them.
