[kwlug-disc] UBB hold the phone

[Darcy Casselman]

If they really were charging "exorbitant markups," some clever sod
could come along and charge slightly less exorbitant markups and run
away with the market share. That's how competitive markets work.

Coincidentally, Yak and Eyesurf are going to be growing their market
share quite a bit locally because they're unaffected by the UBB
ruling.
