[LUG] One ISP or more?

 

Some questions that I have been asked recently made me wonder, is my
set-up unusual?

I use one ISP for broadband only.

I use a different one for email

and another one for my website. I use this one for email as well so
that if one fails I can use the other one.

Of course, each ISP does provide broadband, email and provision for my
own website, so I could use just one for everything. However I feel
that it makes it easier for changes. (For example I could move to a
different broadband provider without causing any changes to my email
address or my website.)

I won't go into how all this happened, but it is the position I am in
now. I am just wondering if this is unusual or if many lug members are
set up in a similar way. Just curious.
