Re: The whole thing is a scam

The US has no residential broadband competition. You typically have a choice between Comcast or AT&T. Which one is worse I'm not entirely sure.

There is no way for a new player to enter the game since the telco's and cable companies own the pipes.

@forethought.net		 I live in Denver and my only options are expensive Comcast or crummy Qwest for broadband internet.

I'll agree with that, it is rather limited on residential Internet side. Though, while it is a huge money maker, it is only one part of the business, and basically only one product.
