I just don't see "subscription package" thing as being credible.  On  
the off chance they do attempt this, I agree with Josiah that we would  
see a rise in the small ISPs like we did in the 90s.  I think there  
are also enough smaller broadband carriers (particularly those who  
service remote areas) that simply won't go for it should it be  
attempted.
