| Not really content discrimination so much..... ....as discrimination against data intensive add-ons. The Metro web browswer for low end phones tend to be crippled in that they won't do flash or anything fancy. You pay extra for a real browser. On feature phones they may have a special app to play youtube. It's only on the higher end phones that you get a full browser.
Keep in mind Metropcs is planning on going all LTE and this includes the lowest end phones. They will be the ones on the $40 plan. The feature phones will be on the $50 plan. And the Androids/Blackberries may very well require the $60 plan. Though perhaps will allow the $50 one.
The $40 plan just seems to be offering a similar product for those who have cheapie flip phone for a similar price once everything is all LTE. |
