1. Many regional providers exist all over the country that provide similar services in fairly remote towns.
2. Symbiote addressed this quite well. They're really not that close to the big exchanges.
3. That's not a technical problem though, and could be changed if there was a will to. Which is exactly what this discussion is about—in Scandinavia (in fact, most of Europe), there is competition and the broadband situation is fairly good.
Heck, I pay less than $50/month for 200/10 MBit/s and cable TV in Germany. There's no technical reason this wouldn't work in metropolitan areas in the US.
