That Comcast is your only choice, and if you disagree with their business practices, usage caps, pricing, or 'network management' that the alternative is dial-up?

That's like arguing that electricity isn't available because you don't agree with how PG&E operates. Just because you don't want to give them your money doesn't mean they cease to exist.

The point remains that Comcast is still offering connections that are quite fast, and it's completely feasible (and expected) that they'd reach gigabit connects in the next 10 years.
