Nobody, but nobody is prepared to pay for resilience. Sadly resilience for complex data networks costs a metric shedload more than for a Strowager switched voice only landline phone network. People want gbps of data and are all in a race to the bottom for cheapest service when there is competition.
Still switch to full VOIP (available now on Virgin) instead of a parallel network of POTS + cable internet should cause the cost of telephone service to drop by 95%. Sadly Virgin (aka Liberty Media) are not offering a reduction in line rental so there is no desire on my part to get a new router that supports VOIP.
