Yes, modems use more bandwidth than voice. But they really contain less
data than voice (which is sampled at 56 or 64 Kbps).
If they'd run a 56 Kbit data line to me, instead of expecting me to
modulate my 2400 Kbit data stream into tones, which are then converted
into a 56 Kbit data stream, I'd be much happier. And they'd be much happier,
because it'd be less expensive than voice.
