We had one until 10 years ago. We both used cells and the land wasn't worth it. Then my MIL moved in with us. She couldn't ever figure out the concept of a cell so I had the land hooked up again and she paid the difference. We have a small local phone co. and we got the same old number. Since we have fiber optic internet through them, they set it up as a VOIP. We couldn't tell the difference between the VOIP and a regular land line. MIL lived with us for 4 years then moved on to live with another daughter. We had the land removed again. It wasn't expensive but it was still a waste.
