In California, there are multiple indie ISP's selling Internet service that use AT&T's last mile. The big issue that I have is that and indie ISP can not use a dry loop on AT&T, forcing POTS service and fees on me. Eg. DSL-Extreme 3Mbps/512kbps = $25/month (+POTS) AT&T Pro 3Mbps/512kbps = $30/month (+POTS) AT&T Dry Pro 3Mbps/512kbps = $40/month TWC 10/1Mbps = $46/month -- Canada = Hollywood North
