That's going to be very difficult when there's only one ISP in your area.

To add onto this.

One ISP that can easily strangle hold all the lines.

Remember: They have to pay for every mile of line they put down, and then maintain and upgrade those lines to keep up to standards, then try to expand to other locations, all on rural funding?

Atop this, rural funding where they have to compete with Comcast or Time Warner?

It's just not realistic.
