There are similar packages available here, but as adsl prices have come down 
the dial-up packages look less attractive.  Still, for some people there's 
still no choice.  You pay BT's rates, and that's it.  For those that have 
cable TV, though, I understand that broadband access as an extra to their 
package is very cheap.  There again, that's only available in larger 
conurbations.
