1. Do I have to pay for the phone line? I don't think so, because as far as I know, you're always connected, like cable, right? That wouldn't be good.

2. Do I have to pay for an ISP? Or do I just pay for the subscription?

3. A 128Kbps connection is about $40. A 256Kbps connection is about $60. It's worth it, isn't it? I'm willing to pay the extra out of my pocket (I'm not the one to pay if we get 128Kbps).

That sounds very high...it depends on if that is your upload speed or download speed...My family pays 45 a month, and that gives us like very high download, 128 upload. If that 128 or 256 is talking about your download, id say your getting ripped off.
