The problem with data over power is that it generates interference in
the HAM radio bands and seriously messes with their long distance radio
transmissions. That is what I have heard.

ADSL competes with cable modem though, right?  In most locales, I would 
guess that there is one ADSL provider and one cable provider, but there 
would still be competition between them and that should keep prices
down. 
Please correct me if I'm mistaken about how that works.

I also hear that internet service can be provided over electrical
wiring, 
but maybe that isn't available yet.  If it becomes available, it will 
probably have a profound effect on pricing.
