It´s also economical question.

If I switch to xDSL- connection it´d cost me some 39euros/month and that
is not even close what I consider economical. My ISDN connection costs
me 28euros/month and I still think it´s a bit too expensive. That is
when compaired bandwidth and service reliablity against price.

And how about those of us who can´t get xDSL for reason or other and are
stuck on their modem connections? Third world or rural areas of
industrial countries or some other reasons and areas why companies won´t
offer possibility for it.

I wish there was multinational project offering free highspeed internet
connections to all alt.photo enthustiacs. But there is not. :-(
