Too many cooks...

DSL will fail because there are too many companies involved, each with its own share of flaws and problems, each competing directly with one another for some or all aspects of service, and none with any reason (or sense) to work with one another. A DSL installation/line/account is like a chain: if one link breaks (i.e., any one of the companies one is forced to deal with), the whole thing is useless. It's easier for one company (cable) to improve its service and performance than it is for three or four (any of those involved in DSL). And, as such, there is a much lower probability that the DSL companies will each get their acts together collectively than for any cable company to do the same.
