I think, thanks to the recent(ish) collapse of the comms market, and thanks to the next one that I think we are heading for, then very few TelCos or ISPs make a profit, excessive or otherwise.

I'm aware that you can't draw a circle and say xxx will get x speed there - I do actually work with the stuff every day I don't base what I know on reading forums.
I would have thought that line quality would be a major contributory factor to speed. After all, if you have a bad line, you are not going to get good speeds even if you are next door to the exchange.

Similarly, if you have a good line, you will get better speeds over longer distances.
