I wouldn't mind paying a modem charge if it meant I got real digital
transmission.  The bandwidth utilization of even a 4800 baud digital
line is 8% of a digitized conversation line, and I would love to pay
8% of my current bill for 4 times the speed and clean lines.  IN FACT,
I'd even be willing to pay a little more (to amortize the Telco's cost
in physical plant) than the current rate.
