I say only, that it is MONEYMAKING.... ISDN is the best thing ever. Using the internet completly through VoIP is wasting ressources and if the ISP connection falls for a time, the line communication fall either.
I think if a state permits ordering isdn bri channels, then there is only a thought behind to make more money for each lines that is being ordered or to sell for high prices ISDN PRI channels, which is in my view nothing else as a unfair "isolation business policy". Sorry, but SMB need to work efficient to grow with telephony without falling in high expenses. I spoke with a friend of mine in L.A. and in the US professional telephony services are much more expensive as in Germany. I still don't know why.
