Because they're still need Verizon to set up the line for them.. They
were very smart to do the following:

1) Be slow
2) Screw up JUST enough
3) just to much 

They did those to get people to hopefully switch to Verizon DSL, or at
least ditch who they were with. And almost every? Please.. Covad is
around, as is speakeasy and Earthlink. There's smaller places like MV,
DirecTV's DSL service got dumped to push their two way sat service. If I
go to dslreports there's still a ton of companies listed... The reason
they stuck around.. They either built up their service slow (MV), they
already had a good chunk of money (Earthlink) or they were a good
alternitive to Verizon (Covad/Speakeasy). I found Vitts to be overpriced
for the service they offered, and they came out of nowhere and magically
had a ton of VC money to throw around.. They had the look and feel of a
HUGE company. Speakeasy was around at the same time but not many people
heard of them.. Who's out of business and who's still around?
