said by hottboiinnc:It would be simple to put a small ad on each out going call. All you have to do is insert the ad before the call is completed. a 15 second ad there would be nothing. Time and Temp. numbers do it. VoIP can do it. And look how many people used free dial-up providers back when those were hot. If it can be done with the Internet it can be done for Voice.
Cable Companies could have their day in the sun if they turned and peered their networks together and created a large VoIP to VoIP plan.
Free calling from any cable company to another that offers Digital Phone.
Would be a HUGE hit. Especially since they wouldn't have to pay to put the calls on to the PSTN if they could keep them on their network until it would reach the other cable network for peering.
Except for the ad idea, I agree your other ideas make sense.
