I really don't know why anyone has a landline phone anymore? Why complain about unwanted calls when its a simple task to block/remove any scam calls with a cell phone.
I have a landline, and I always will. Once you've lived through disasters (hurricanes, blackouts, 9/11) when landlines were the only phones that worked, you learn just how important they can be.
I've written about this before, but I know a couple who were trapped in their vacation home during Hurricane Sandy when a tree fell on it. No one knew they were there, cell phones were not working, but fortunately they had a landline.
I don't complain about unwanted calls because I have Nomorobo. It's free and works really well. I actually have more issues with unwanted calls on my cell phone. I'll never be without a landline, and I'm sure other people have good reasons for keeping one too.
