Problem with "rural" DSL is limited bandwidth out of the remote: you and all your neighbors have 3Mb/s (or 1.7Mb/s), but you're fighting for a piece of the 12Mb that's available to your subdivision.
If you have DSL "in town" (meaning "directly to the switch") the uplink is usually in the hundreds of Mb, so plenty to go around.
The irony of Telcom whining about declining revenue due to lost customers is left as an exercise for the reader.
