Re: AT&T

Old school business, and not reacting to competition:

1. Charging expensive rates for POTS ($40/month + ~$16/month in fees). Call Vantage (not being promoted) is $25/month. Uverse VoIP has been trialled at $40/month... WTF are they thinking!

2. Non compeitive bundling. DSL is decently priced, however has restrictions (until recently, required POTS). VDSL internet requires TV subscription. Cable will sell you any of their services standalone.

3. Eavesdropping / content filtering (blue room and now Hollywood agreements). All bad news.

My "service" rate is under $11 a month. My "Fees, taxes, and surcharges" add $23, for a $34 bill. On an $11 service plan. Nothing like a 200% b*llsh*t tax to remind me why I use VoIP for my primary line.
