In my line of work I also am given such choices. If I determine I
want to be a pastor of such and such a congregation will even be
told where I am going to live (A provided parsonage)
Availability of services and type was never a given option. You take
what you are given. NO ifs ands or buts.
Thankfully about 15 years ago the small dish satellite became
available. Otherwise it was what was on the antenna and what the
rotor cold find.
More and more options are being given to those in rural areas. DSL
is now offered in the small town I lived in. Only other option for
high speed was satellite.
The biggest difference I see is the size of the company serving the
area. Large tier companies are not really interested in smaller low
tier areas. Many of the smaller coop phone companies are now giving
their customers more options than the large guys are.
Bigger is not always better.

I don't determine quality of service available--neither do you.
Providers determine that. They also decide where and what kinds of
services they offer. As long as companies decide that "nobody lives
here" and don't provide service for us, we're stuck with the minimum.
Moving is not an option.
