This data regarding lower prices in relation to competitive markets is utter nonsense.

No, I can attest to the fact that it is true (at least in Columbus, Ohio). Depending on where you live, we have a choice between AT&T, Time Warner, WOW and Insight. One of those companies usually comes with a better deal once they hear you are also considering signing up with one of their competitors.

The bad news is that the statement that ISP's give lower prices according to what else you bundle with it is also true. I can order internet through my local provider, Insight, for $45/month as a stand alone service. However, if I choose to add digital cable then I'll get the same internet service for $30/month. So, in effect, I've got to spend $80 in order to get my $30 internet service. That isn't an issue if you were going to pay for cable service anyhow, but if you have Dish or DirecTV or just don't want a pay TV service then your kinda getting screwed.
