Yes, but that's ISDN. ISDN is great, if:

1) you can get it. Lots of restrictions (3 miles from CO) and tough to get.
2) you can afford it-- it's expensive in most areas, with a PER MINUTE charge in a lot of them
3) your ISP supports it
4) your friends have it too

DSVD is a technology for existing analog lines, ISDN is a whole other deal.
