Yes. The reason, if I understand it correctly, is not that there are more telecommunication lines due to the internet. Rather, the technology used by the internet (packets, which travel independently in parallel, or something like that) is much more efficient than one for the old phone lines. Thus, you can put about 10 times more voice lines on the same cable. Explains the price drop. And, the number of connections grows exponentially with the number of nodes. A lot more efficient network.
