Re: Copper? what Copper?

said by Tobester:

I'm fairly sure that Covad and other DSL providers are paying AT&T (and/or Verizon) a fee for their "Line Sharing" of the last mile copper wire to my house.
I'm not sure what that has to do with my point, which is that if Verizon wants to dump their copper plant and move resources to FiOS, they should be allowed to do so. It's not Verizon's responsibility to keep a CLEC in business. (And before I'm mobbed by the masses here, I am glad the CLECs are around and wish there was more competition.)

As the incumbent provider, they absolutely are required to maintain plant/services to the community they serve. They can't simply abandon their plant and pick and chose who/where they will service.
