I don't know how much a reality their particular plan is but the telcos have been neglecting the copper wiring in an effort to get people to switch to the IP phone/cable combo services for a while now.

Here in NY when Fios first came around the copper run was ripped out upon installation. It ended up being the deciding factor in not changing services.

Anywho, I wouldn't put it past any of them to do something like this, and with the way things are going they'll probably let them do it.
