This is a bit off topic but the article made me think about it:
I am considering getting a landline for my next home, and just realized I have no idea what a fair price is. I have not had a landline my entire life (always used a cell).
Is a hardline cheap in these areas or do they charge about as much as a cell since they know there is demand for a reliable connection?

- clubm8 8y ago> What is the advantage of landline over VOIP? A few things. First, there is a small bit of power going over traditional copper lines, and you are able to dial 911 even if the power goes out or the internet goes down. Second it's a sociological mechanism. People in modern times are incredibly entitled, so saying "I didn't want to answer your call because I was busy" makes them irrationally angry. But if you give out your landline you can just say you weren't at home.
