I have family in rural NC , two different areas. Both have lived in those areas for 15 yrs. When AT&T pulled out due to not enough customers, they lost internet. The only option they had was 10 down, 1 up (advertised), for $65 a month.

Last year they got word AT&T, and several smaller name companies were moving out there. Now they get 300 down, 10 up for $50.
