I suppose it could be at your place, but while I haven't dealt with 
anything but the local ISP's here in the USA, it has always been 
considered as part of the deal.  I have a 10 megabit connection and my 
telephone from the local cable company at nominally $110 USD/month.  And 
the telephone is no charge long distance anyplace in the lower 48 
states.  That quasi-free LD is handier than sliced bread as this is a 
pretty big place compared to NZ. I find I often have to check where I'm 
calling to make sure the time zone there is business hours for them 
since we have 4 hours diff to kalipornia from here.
