Surely most customers, at least domestic and small business, will
require a landline for Internet connection,

We have Virgin fibre, and no landline.

Well, yes, but that is still a landline, whether it is copper, fibre or
whatever.Â* Presumably you have to pay for the fibre to be there, whether
or not you make phone calls or access the Internet.


I have a non BT fibre connection to my house. I only have to pay for it
because I use it. The term landline generally refers to a
copper/aluminium line from your house to a BT exchange.
