Re: Evolution of the VoIP market? Comparing AOL to a public utility is apples to oranges, but thanks.
The fact is that the part of the country that is chiming up here needs to remember that you all live in an expensive part of the country. It's expensive!! I know I will get lashed out for one this one, but its true: If you don't like these prices, then move to get relief. The cost to deliver anything to anyone in that area is always going to be higher than the rest of the country. It's certainly not a part of the country to live in if you don't make a good living, that's for sure. But, if it's not phone, it's going to be something else.
No, I am not any of those people you tried to use in your post - sorry. In fact, those days of per byte/hour broadband are on the horizon in case you haven't noticed. Give it a few years and broadband will be sold in tiers or caps with overage charges.
The FACT is, remains, that NOTHING is "free" or "Unlimited".. not even "unlimited long distance" .. read your agreement. Unlimited is equal to about 5000 minutes. You can't give the masses anything unlimited because some people will abuse it. When ever something unlimited is released, it pretty quickly goes back to being limited because, as you said, it's narrowed down to what the market can handle.
From your post, you make it sound like it's just a matter of time before you will get an unlimited service for a good price from that provider from god.. it's not going to happen and it won't happen anytime soon. -- "Complaining is the least path of resistance for the self-serving, the lazy, and Im told its a womans prerogative..." |
