Until we all have UPSes in our homes I think most will continue to have a landline for use in emergencys. A lot of people could replace their landlines but don't, in my case it's for ADSL and so that people don't have to fork out to phone me.
You are in the minority, and are vehemently anti-ADSL anyway due to the poor quality of your line. Hundreds of posts here and on Thinkbroadband confirm this, so you'll excuse me if I don't take what you say as gospel.
