Cable customers are "covered" in the sense that the digital cable box produces an analog signal to feed the old fashioned NTSC TV set.
Then there's FIOS, but I've heard something to the effect that when you sign up for phone, internet and cable service from the phone company supplied FIOS, they remove your house's address from a database of places that the phone company is required to provide copper land line service to. And thus you can no longer go back to "plain ordinary telephone service" fed by copper landlines, as your house no longer "exists" in the list of serviceable sites. Then you're locked into whatever rates the FIOS supplier feels like charging.
