I had a a landline with ATT until last year.
I got tired of paying them $40.00 a month for mediocre service so switched to VOIP server Ooma for $4.00 a month. Plus I was able to keep the same number I've had for 30 years.

Truth be told, I'm not the only one in the house and older people aren't so quick to adapt to newer ways. I personally don't use the land line. I never answer the phone. 98% of the time, it's spam, and the other 2% it's for the aforementioned older person, so it holds no value to me. I keep it around for that older person.
