Pay for it? If I remember from CALEA, the providers pay for it
(and eventually their customers), and as for "broadband Internet
providers"... I'm guessing anyone who offers end user customers
a circuit bigger than 53.333k. 

Pet peeve: broadband isn't a synonym for "faster than a modem."
Cable and DSL are broadband due to those technologies using a wide range
of frequencies.  Ethernet is not broadband (but baseband).
