:Case in point: My own rental unit already had the wiring in place by the local cable monopoly. I have considered several times getting DSL instead, however, that would entail a laundry list of inconvenience to me including:
(1) Taking time out of work to sit and wait for the DSL provider to show up and split the line into voice and data;
(2) Waiting on the local telco monopoly to provision the line, which, as previously experienced elsewhere, took 30-45 days.
Cable has many what some consider "unfair" advantages over DSL in more ways than just home ownership sales.
This is true but it is also somethings Telcos can and ought to fix.
