They should be required to offer "naked DSL" in ALL their server areas within 6 months of the merger and for a period of not less than 30 months. Further, the "naked DSL" pricing should be the same as like dsl package prices being marketed for their existing packages.

One service should not be "tied" to another service offering (dsl & voice) nor should one service subsidize another service offering.
Typical response...and no mention to the fact that the cable companies require you to pay for their TV service or pay a higher rate for cable modem.

Let the AT&T bashing begin.

 At least with Cable you get the option to buy Internet service only. It's only a $5 increase a month, so that'e about 10% compared to the $50 subscription fee (that's the numbers I remember from when I was doing this with Charter)

With Bellsouth, good luck getting a DSL only line... I tried when I was still in Georgia, only speakeasy was delivering naked DSL...
