I've had some form of VoIP for over 10 years.  Initially, it was mainly for
cheap phone calls, but since 2010, when we moved out of the city, VoIP has
become the primary phone service.  Still have a POTS line, mainly because I
have no choice, the only telco with copper here only provides DSL with POTS. 
But the only people who know the POTS number are the telemarketers, so they're
easily shunted to an answering machines. :)  The VoIP number is unlisted, and
is the one that is given out.  Outbound calls are mostly routed out via VoIP,
except for emergency calls and some toll free numbers that the VoIP service
doesn't seem to like, which are routed via POTS.

The Fritzbox looks after all of this.  Sure, it's not as advanced as an
Asterisk box, but it serves the purpose. :)
