Bundling is, in part, an effort by providers to obfuscate the real price of services, clouding the consumer's ability to directly compare single-service prices. Once a customer has switched to a single-provider, they're frequently greeted by unexpected fees, and the cost-savings they expected are nowhere to be found. If more consumers were aware of this bait-and-switch tactic, the sum total of one of P.T. Barnum's own would not be quite so high as it currently is. But since Internet content is headed the way of cable thanks to gullible, weak minded sheep who believe the telcos, consumers better get used to getting shafted in yet another financial orifice.
