From what I've read the dramatic drop your discussing is priced in at about a 7% discount. You can easily see why a 100% loss is unlikely - a fifty year leasehold sells for about 50% of a freehold.

Uneducated answer: it's a natural monopoly. There are economies of scale and any new entrant won't get monopoly profits to justify the required capital and risk. Why couldn't anyone compete against Bell by building a second p
