That's really not that great of a deal. I think comcast throws out a 16Mb Basic Cable and one or two VoIP lines for $99 in an introductory offer here.
What happens when AT&T and Comcast come back with a price that undercuts your Muni price? Will you really be that loyal? Most people will not and will go back to the cheapest price. AT&T and Comcast have the resources and deep pockets to sustain a long price war that can wear down a muni project.
It's called competition. I'm all for muni networks (if you can't get someone to build it for you then build it yourself) but they should be able to compete like anyone else.
