And it wont be a bad thing. The worst thing you can do to the wireless industry is turn it into a utility. How innovative has your power company been over the last 80 years? Far, far less than the wireless industry has been in the last 10. The inter net went back to the rules and regulations of mid 2015, that was no dark age.

Well, on the plus side you didnt have any distraction while watching your movie.

People dont hate roaming, they dont even notice except when some services are missing. Roaming agreements make alot more sense that haveing four carriers spending the money to compete for 500 customer of some town in the middle of nowhere. Let one or two players offer service to the locals and other players rent their network when ond of their customers accidentally wander in to those areas. Ps. People that call sprint an MVNO are ignorant of simple definitions.

It definitely was. Sprint's plan was to make the company as strong as possible (in revenue, stock value and subscriber terms) while investing as little as possible and then merge the two companies with Masa having strategic control of the new company so that he could integrate it with his other investments. That would explain the company's 2015 and 2016 talk about densification with while not actually densifying campaign. Masa just believe the control of sprint is worth more that ~40 percent of 32 billion of value. He is either epically wrong or a genius.

They have already started lining up LTE roaming agreements with AT&T. I think that points to the future quite clearly. There plan should be to get VoLTE up and running before VZW shuts down their CDMA network. If They manage that, then they will have more raoming partners to choose from in most location. It might even reduce the cost of roaming for them. But They are going to have to fix their native network first.

I am talking about sprint under Marcelo. In 2015 there was talk after talk in conferences and earning calls about theit network plan as they were cutting CAPEX claiming they didnt need high CAPEX to density their network. The end result was a year of them claiming their network plans were on track while in reality no densification took place. In my opinion management came very close to lying to shareholders.

The best way for sprint to rebrand is to densify and build out their network. The problem is that they have been talking about doing this for year's and in my opinion they have been misleading people about what their network plans have been. I am still very sceptical about anything that sprint management says with regards to their network investment.

FCC Revokes Net Neutrality [WAS: FCC Approves Net Neutrality]

If you are going to attack an analogy the difference you have to point out between the analogy and what it is attempting to discribe has to be relevant to point being made. The fact That the governments role in internet was designed for the purpose of creating internet infrastructure and roads aren't designed specifically for grocery stores is not relevant. Both the roads are necessary for grocery stores to exist and the government's investment in the internet is was necessary for it to exist. Yes, netflix is complaining that some companies can demand a large share of the profits in this two side market and they would lose. The same thing happens all the time, in many industries, for example grocery stores and charging for Shelf space. What should you care who gets what profits? Why do you think the government is better placed to divide up the profits of the industry than the market? -

Which playimg field? There are two amd it seems like you want to privilege one over the other for feels. There is zero evidenve that the internet is harmed in a world without the 2015 NN title 2 regulation. In fact, there is 20 years of evidence to the contrary. -

It isn't. Weather or not they were built for a grocery store or not they are necessary for a grocery store. God help us if the government turn the internet into at public utility like the electrical grid I'm not looking forward to Brown outside the internet in the future. How Innovative have public utility companies Been over the last 25 years? How about ISPs? -

That isnt exactly true. The back bone of the internet was created by the military but the innovation and evolution of the internet for the past 25 years have been the private industry. But even if we accept your premise you have to get to grocery stores on government roads. The industries are alot alike in revelvent economic characteristics.
