Overview:

This sample chapter, taken from Internet Phone Services Simplified, discusses the advantages of broadband phone services as either an additional phone line or a complete replacement to traditional phone service.

Internet phone services offering free and unlimited long-distance calling drew consumers even back when call quality could be uneven. Now, quality is more consistent, a wide range of calling features are available, and remarkably, calls remain relatively inexpensive. This sample chapter from Internet Phone Services Simplified weighs the advantages of broadband phone services over PSTN phone services from a consumer perspective, then offers a broad industry overview of the factors that make broadband phone services so affordable relative to public phone services: infrastructure costs, transport costs, regulatory compliance costs, and taxes and fees.
