Where I live in London I have access to close to 100 ISPs that will take my cash. Where my parents live in the sticks there are two. One is BT who have to provide them a service but it's severely restricted (in bandwidth terms) and the other is Demon who are respectable enough.

It's not the open market place the governments market models predict.

In the sticks everything goes through the expensive BT Ipstream product anyway.
