Okay - I'll bite; why doesn't it.  I think POTS is over priced and for 
the vintage of tech that it is, so why should I pay for it?  I have had my 
cell phone for three years and its reception has only gotten better, also 
the one time I need to call 911 when I saw bad wreck they knew 
exactly where I was.  The only valid gripe I see is power, in which 
emergency generators can be put in place for the tower.  

POTS needs to go - its old, overpriced, and requires to much overhead to 
maintain it.
