Oh, yes, there is. Multicast? IPv6? Both CAN be done, but probably
won't. Dark fibre to CO is the only way to be sure. As long as that is
possible, perhaps mandated by regulation, there's no major issue with
providing a packaged service.
In the end, though, if we get the quality of Internet access up to
sensible levels (today minimum of a /56 and 100Mbit symmetric and no
stupid peering wars ;-) there are few reasons not to bundle L1-L3.=20
However, given the nature of monopolies and their tendency to underperform
and overcharge, that is an optimisation dream...
